Cooper’s Discoverer STT opens adventure 4x4 choice

Cooper’s Discoverer STT opens adventure 4x4 choice Cooper Tire’s rugged Discoverer STT 4x4 tyre opens the door for vehicle choice in the adventure 4x4 market, according to top UK off-road driving centre, Kankku.

The Lake District-based centre fits the Discoverer Super Traction Tread (STT) on its fleets of Land Rover Defenders, traditionally the vehicle of choice for adventure off-road driving. But it also operates a fleet of Mitsubishi Shoguns on its corporate and private events, and says that is only possible thanks to the Cooper rubber.

“A 4x4 vehicle on Cooper Discoverer STTs can easily upstage the vehicles you might reasonably expect to see in this kind of environment,” said Kankku’s Nick Fieldhouse. “The toughness and extreme durability of the tyre makes it perfect for our operation, which runs almost every day of the year.

“Our regularly-used fleet of Shoguns proves that the STT means you can now consider 4x4s other than Defenders for this type of driving, which opens up the activity to a huge number of new 4x4 owners.”

Designed specifically with the adventurous pursuits of rock-climbing, mud-eating and terrain-taming in mind, the Discoverer STT also offers superb traction, enhanced durability and increased puncture resistance on the road thanks to its innovative and uncompromising design and tread compound.

Outstanding durability is delivered by the three-ply Armor-Tek3 body, while the non-directional tread elements are strategically siped for exceptional handling in wet weather.
