Cooper 90000029749 Discoverer True North 235/45R18 98H XL Studless Winter Tire

The Cooper Discoverer True North 235/45R18 98H XL is a studless winter tire engineered for passenger cars, SUVs, and crossovers that regularly face plowed and treated roads, slush, and black ice during the winter months. Carrying both the M+S rating and the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMS) certification, this tire meets rigorous severe snow service standards without compromising everyday driveability.

Key Features:

• Snow Groove Technology — Patented saw-tooth snow grooves trap and retain snow in the tread blocks, promoting exceptional snow-on-snow traction
• Silica-Enriched Tread Compound — Stays pliable in freezing temperatures, improving ice grip and eliminating the need for metal stud pins
• Asymmetric Tread Design — Outboard circumferential grooves efficiently evacuate water and slush to resist hydroplaning; inboard tread maximizes rubber contact for enhanced grip on ice and packed snow
• High-Density Sipes — Generate additional biting edges for improved wet traction and winter performance across all surfaces
• Noise Dampening Structures — Integrated tread design reduces road-to-tire noise for a noticeably quieter ride
• Extra Load (XL) Rated — Higher load capacity versus standard load tires in the same size
• 3PMS Certified — Meets the performance criteria for severe snow service conditions

The Discoverer True North is built with a polyester casing that maintains optimal tire shape over the road surface, absorbing driving shock and reducing vibration for a comfortable winter commute. Whether navigating slushy highways or icy side streets, this tire delivers the confident handling and traction control that daily winter drivers demand.
