What are the Cooper Discoverer LTZ like a a winter/snow/ice tyre?

Can't comment specifically but my 110 runs Cooper Discoverer STT's which I assume are the same rubber compound and they're superb in the conditions you describe. Si. <This is my name.

I eat rat poison.

A man ain't truly been insulted until he stands buck naked in front of a woman and she didn't even notice. Or care.

The STT's are much more aggressive tread but I am thinking like you....

I have these just fitted for about 1 month now:

To be honest they have not seen any snow yet, just loads of standing water and seem ok so far, sadly not been too icy here yet either!

Wrong size needs to be 275/45 R20

Yes, STT's have a more aggressive tread but, again, they're superb on ice.

In my opinion, it's the rubber compound more than the tread pattern that makes the difference.

My old BFG AT's were great but the compound had a habit of work-hardening over time, making the tyres less and less effective in rain and ice as the rubber got progressively harder.

I know the Discoverer compound has stayed supple and effective over the 4+ years I've had mine. Si. <This is my name.

Apologies, meant to say I bought those ones from Fisha.

I have had the LTZ's on since the snow started flying. We have had about 3 feet of snow so far this year and they have worked flawlessly. While they can't match a good set of real snow tires on ice, they are equally as good in any other winter driving conditions I've seen.

is there a lot of road noise on these tyres as I'm looking to have them on the FF for the winter

Jay, no they are very quiet for what they are but, don't move them around on the car,,, If you put them on from new, leave them on the axle otherwise they will be noisy if moved.

Really impressed so far with them.
Went through some deep isn water 6" or so no problems.
Went through at speed no problems

Look really good on the car with little to no road noise, At the moment would highly recommend
