1999 Explorer XLT 4.0 OHV
Anyone ever tried the Multi Mile tires by Cooper. A local tire place is selling them for $433 with taxes installed with free lifetime rotation and all other fees included. I believe the specific style is Wild Country XHT. I would get them in the 235/75/15 size. Sounds like a great deal its about $220 dollars cheaper than Firestone and Uniroyal tires i am looking at...

Sorry for the misspelling in the title..
 






google them and read customer reviews
 






I have tried google and yahoo but really can't find any customer reviews..I haven't been able to find much info at all...
 






maybe they're too new to have any reviews yet. if if helps, i put a set of Starfire SF340's on my POS '01 XLT over a year ago. they're made by Cooper Tire. they cost me about $100 a piece installed. i figured they'd wear out pretty quickly, but after 40k+ they still look almost new. the ride is pretty good too. Customer reviews are generally very good.
 


















Wild Country tires are the house brand carried all across the pacific northwest and sold through Les Schwab tires. the brand is quite reliable...

However you should easily be able to find the Good-Year Wrangler RT/S for maybe fifty bucks more for a set, and have an OEM tire with well known and predictable life. Also, you could get the Wrangler Radial, slightly lower quality but ive sold thousands of those tires, not much of a fan, but never had any issue. they should retail for around 100 bucks a pop. good luck

They sure are well known -
1) to get very noisy as they wear
2) to ride like crap when they wear
3) to be up for replacement early because of #1 and #2

Their reviews and ratings are not very good. I've run them, and will never again.

Never had much luck with Goodyear's on any of my Explorers and now i'm on my third. However they seem to do okay on some of my wife's cars over the years.
 






I think my g/f's mom had some Wild Country tires on her F150. Not sure on which model though. Overall, I think they were good. Kinda noisy on highway. A bit more of a firmer ride.

I would avoid Goodyear Wrangler RT/S for sure...
