Default 315/75R16 Cooper Discoverer AT3s any good??

They seem really cheap for a 35" tire.
$1020 shipped for a set of 5 from here
LT315/75 R16 Cooper Discoverer AT3 Tire Item-90000002726

Sadly the place is VERY close to me but doesnt offer local pickup.
Am I missing anything or should I buy these for me OEM rims?
I want 35s bad but Im on a tight budget. If I can use these with my current rims for a while Im down for a set.


Also, if these tires are good and I order them will I need spacers if I get a 2.5" lift to go with it?

I just got a set of AT3's in the stock size ... Love. Them.

Just had our little blizzard up here in NY and they were amazing.

The only thing I find strange is almost no big name retailers sell the 315/75R16s from what Ive seen. ~$200 a tire seems pretty sweet though

any issues fitting them on the stock 16"s?

I had a set of 31x10.50s on my Tj put 25k on them in a year and when I traded it in on my JK back in August they still looked new so I bought a set for the JK the first week. I've been using Cooper Tires for years always had great results and more money in my pocket when it was said and done.

They probably don't have a warehouse they drop ship everything.

Also try eBay. A lot of places offer 4 tires but if you email them and ask them for a quote for a fifth, they will include it for you. I just paid $1,225 for 5 Hankook Dynapro 315/70 17's shipped to my door. Local shops wanted almost $1,700. Good luck

I have a set of 31's and LOVE them!!! Been great in the snow and rain and don't make noise on the highway. Over 20K miles on them and show very little wear. Look almost new.

I live in NH and work in VT, they do really good in snow. Ice this morning was not that bad also.
I would get them again!
