I had a set of Coopers A/T (not cobras) on my F-350 4x4 dually
they didn't last 25k, I bought them mainly because they were cheaper
the BFG's lasted like almost 40k+, weren't that much more,
maybe $25 a tire more, at our local little tire joint
I won't buy another set of Coopers
I never tried the Cobra's
I now use Wild Country RVT from Less Swabb
great mileage & wear on my 99 Dakota 4x4 32x12
have over 40k on them still about 1/2 the thread showing
but showing signs of wear faster now
I drive on mountain roads up here
very little open straight hwy/freeway driving
we don't have a freeway for 100 mile from here
I'm very satisfied with them
We finally have a Less Swabb up here now, so I'll be buying tires there
they have always treated me great & I don't have to go to the valley
to get a good tire selection or have them shipped in now
I pretty much used BFG Radial TA's on most all my streetcars
had very good luck with them
(
had a few 4x4's with BFG A/T or M/S 33 x 12.5 too, great life/milage)
I have 245/60/15 front on 15x7 & 295/50/15 on 15x9 rear currently
handles well & does well on dry to
damp pavement,
it's not a drag tire, not a great rain tire either, not with 600+hp
but they hook OK, in the dry for what they are
but pretty good for all around driving/not bad in handling either
might be a bit stiffer sidewalls
they're not a soft compound traction style tire, but they do well
I have no complaints
been Using them for 40+ years now, even if they are a bit more $$$
than the others
Good Years I've tried or came on my rigs (
on cars & trucks/4x4's) are pricey
I haven't had very good longevity/wear out of the Good Years
they are a softer tire for damn sure
I do like Good Year racing tires & slicks
M/T's for traction on a Street/strip deal, with very little cornering
