American manufacturer, Cooper Tires, has released a new 4WD tyre which is now available in Australia. It is the Discoverer ST and it's designed to suit the largest percentage of 4WD owners in the marketplace.

The Discoverer ST features an aggressive tread pattern with mud pattern edges and a centre drainage channel to aid water dispersement. This makes it ideal for use on wet or dry bitument, as well as all types of dirt roads.

Potential buyers of the Cooper Discoverer ST include 4WD club members, outback travellers, rural land owners, fleet and government 4WD owners and weekend off road drivers.

Australian importer, Terry Smith of Exclusive Tyre Distributors in Brisbane, says the Discoverer ST is the result of five years of development, following exhaustive testing in Australia, Africa and America. He believes the tyre is the latest achievement in an all round "all terrain" pattern, to suit a high percentage of 4WD owners.

Reports to date indicate that buyers of the new Discoverer ST are extremely happy with their choice, and rave reports are often the case.
