Well, Sonny... web sites that are put together by those young whippersnappers sure are complexicated.
The Cooper web site takes a minute or two to load and then gives you the images of a town with a Cooper Tire dealer. You click on the tire shop and there is the full selection of Cooper tires for many different vehicle types. Or you can just click "TIRES" on the tool bar at the top of the web page. Many of the tire images let you spin the tire around and look at all sides of the tire.
There all complete specifications for all the tires, but you have to click on "TIRE SPECIFICATIONS" next to the picture of the tires.
I will be replacing the tires on my 2005 Power Wagon before long. I am keeping a truck here for a friend who is in Iraq. He has Cooper Discoverer S-T tires and I like the looks of them.
I was at my local B.F. Goodrich dealer having a puncture repaired on one of the original Power Wagon tires. That dealer also was a Cooper dealer. No one has told him that Cooper tires are no longer manufactured and distributed.
I did a hands-on look at the new Cooper SST which compares favorably with the Goodyear and Goodrich mud treads.
The Cooper web site also has a dealer locater function so you can find all those other Cooper dealers who don't know there are no Cooper Tires any more.
