Cooper Discoverer SRX LE. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; High driving comfort levels; Longer lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The Cooper Discoverer SRX LE is a performance, all season tire manufactured for SUVs. Cooper offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty. This tire is the original equipment tire of select Mercedes-Benz vehicles.The tire improves the all weather traction. The tire uses its all season compound and the detailed ribbed tread pattern to boost the dry, wet and winter weather traction. The micro-gauge siping placement along the tread blocks heightens the number of biting edges gripping the road surface on various weather conditions, while the compound keeps the rubber flexibility in different temperatures. The tread also features special aqua vac channels that disperse water and slush from the footprint, preventing hydroplaning and further boosting the wet weather traction. This results in the tires safer year round performance.The tread design and the superb tire profile increase the controllability. The stronger performance construction keeps the ideal tire shape under the driving pressure, while the ribbed tread pattern and the optimal tire shape maintain the surface contact at all times. This allows the tire to improve the steering responsiveness and accuracy to the drivers instructions while optimizing the driving stability during the drive. The tread elements also enhance the cornering and braking abilities. The micro-gauge sipes manage to generate friction at the moment of braking, which greatly shortens the braking distance. On the other hand, the shoulders block pattern provides additional biting edges to grip the road surface during maneuvering, offering a safer cornering capability.The strengthened internal structure not only improves the driving durability, it also helps to increase the high driving comfort levels during the models performance. The advanced performance construction enables the tire to closely follow the road surface at all times. In this manner, the tire is able to absorb the shock of driving while the tires are in motion. In other words, the road vibrations are minimized and they are not felt in the vehicles cabin. As road disturbances cannot ruin the passengers driving enjoyment, the tire promotes a comfortable driving experience.The Discoverer SRX LE enhances the expected tread life. The stronger all season compound and the ribbed tread design increase the usability. The treads constant surface contact allows the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The evenly spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking effectively prevents irregular wear formations. The compound utilizes wear-resistant rubber elements to reduce the tread wear rate throughout the tires lifetime. This combination significantly lengthens the models service life.
