The Best All Season Tires for 2025/26 P7 of 9

The Cooper is a brand most of us have heard of, however in this test the Discoverer All Season did not really perform like that. It was a little better in the dry and wet compared to the previous two tires, but still 10% off in wet braking which is less than ideal. It also had the highest rolling resistance and the worst snow performance of all the all season tires, it was a difficult test for the Cooper. Though it was comfortable.

I bought this tire from Camskill at very low promotional price. They did over 50 k miles and I am really impressed from the accuracy of steering and handling. These tires like wet roads and feels like they grip more. I tried premium tires and these were better and quieter and I wish I can find them again on offer.
