I was genuinely shocked as M/Ts typically have a bad rep on the ice. When out in El Dorado County snow-covered and ice-covered roads, the EVOs did incredibly well for an M/T. The one area where the EVOs shine over the STTs is the ice/snow when on-road. On a scale of 1-10 (with 1 being loud and 10 being mellow), I would rate the STT Pro a “4” and the Evolution M/T a “7”. To start, the road noise of the EVO M/T is more mellow than the STT Pros.

But the EVO M/T shapes up to a better daily driver tire. Generally, both of these offerings from Cooper have pretty great road manners for Mud Terrains. Cooper Evolution M/Tīoth of these tires are great on-road they both track straight when balanced and aligned so no complaints on either tire there. Cooper STT Pro All-Season (285/70R17): Check Price.Cooper Evolution M/T (285/70R17): Check Price.I have had many questions about the differences between the two tires so far on Instagram, so I thought I would throw together a post overview. This is only our initial look at the two tires, and our experiences with them so far with 3000 miles on both tires (two different 4Runners).

Granted this is not a full 20K to 50k mile review of either tire. After running the STT Pros for about 3000 miles, we have come to some pretty basic initial impressions. Let’s jump into the two tires, looking at a few different categories in order to determine how they differ.
Stone Barriers: Protect against damage from sharp rocks and expel lodged stones. Trail Grip Sidewall: Aggressive “climbers” that grab onto rocks and sticks. Mud Slingers: Get extra grip from the deep, wide trenches. Earth Diggers: Tackle tricky terrain with large blocks with alternating mud scoops. They look awesome, perform well on-road, and have also continued to prove themselves off-road through the snow (yes, snow), mud, rock, sand, gravel, and pretty much anything else we have thrown at them. In short, our initial impressions of the Cooper Evolution M/T were great. If you have not read our initial impressions of the Evolution M/T, go check that out for a detailed look at them. The reviews of the STT Pro were really starting to sound like the Evolution M/T: great on and off the road. #Cooper discovery pro sst mud free#
Mud Release Dimples: Aid in keeping the tread pattern free of loose soil.Ĭooper Evolution M/T 35X12.5 + Fuel Wheels Anza -6 Offset Bronze + Spidertrax 1.25″ Spacers.Anti Stone Retention: Resists stone retention which helps to increase the life of the tire.Alternating Shoulder Lugs: Enhance traction in mud and soft surfaces.
Hybrid 3-2 Tread: Reduces noise and increases stability. This almost sounds too good to be true… a high-performance mud-terrain tire with outstanding off-road performance specs that doesn’t scream at you on the highway? A true lady in the streets and a freak in the sheets… well, a beast in our case. On top of its looks and well-trusted off-road performance, it has a 5-star reputation for having well-manned on-road performance specs as well. The lugs are beefy and the shoulder has impressive looking cleats with deep scoops giving the appearance that it would destroy anything in its path. More so than most mud terrains on the market. The sidewall, shoulder, and tread pattern all look super aggressive. So what is it about these tires that everyone likes so much?Ĭould it be? Finally, an M/T that people love more than the infamous KO2 A/T? No way! Why STT Pro?Īt first glance, I can see why an entire off-road community is drawn to the STT Pros. I see countless 4Runners, Tacomas, Tundras, and many other off-road platforms running them. I have read many great reviews about them, and have had some great conversations with guys on Instagram about them as well.
