Exclamation HELP selecting tires

I'm selecting new tires for my 2006 H3 with 150K miles. I have had goodyear wranglers that have tread wear.

My selections are as follows:
  • Cooper A/T discoverers
  • Pirelli Scorpion AT plus
  • General Grabber ATx
Does Anyone have any suggestions or preferences for all year tires. I live in New England so my tires will experience snow, rain, and sometimes sand when I drive on the local beach. My H3 is my daily driver so i'm looking for comfort as well mainting the ability to withstand most conditions.

Cooper DISCOVERER AT3 LT - Very Good in the snow, semi quiet, Nice sidewall design, great in the sand aired down, etc.

Cooper DISCOVERER ATP - Great snow, decent in the sand, very quiet, smooth overall riding tire

And Cooper is Made in the USA

Welcome to HF. What size were you aiming for? I always favor Made in the USA tires! Coopers are hard to beat, my truck has Mickey Thompson 305 MTZs, but my beater has Coopers.

I had the Cooper At3 load range D and they were great. Great on road, great for my type of offroad (sand/desert/dunes), never got stuck, never rebalanced them even after going offroad Aired down to 7 psi. Lasted 6 years, 80K miles. No road noise either. I live in a dry area with barely any rain but when it did I felt comfortable driving them.

Yes yes, a great tire in dead, but can't get them here. Like the new TOYO OC AT3, would love to have one of those too
