The Discoverer A/T3 utilizes a balanced combination of technology, compounding and design to produce a tire that will perform well in nearly all types of terrains. The tread compound enhances wet traction and rolling resistance, while the aggressive tread design significantly improves off-road traction without sacrificing highway performance. All traction...all terrain..all the time!
The aggressive all-terrain design is engineered to provide outstanding performance in both on-road and off-road driving applications. The A/T3 tread pattern exploits a combination of features specifically suited to provide solid all-terrain performance, superior all-season traction, excellent stability, confident handling and reliable tread wear.
The tread compound is formulated with a chemically coupled silica and carbon black mixture that provides excellent wet traction and handling on the highway, while also improving cut and chip resistance in more harsh rocky and gravel terrain. The silica enriched tread compound has lower rolling resistance than traditional full carbon black tread compounds.
The dual draft angles on the tread element walls aid in reducing stone retention, stone drilling and assist in cut and chip resistance. Serrated steps in the lateral grooves of the intermediate tread rib reduces the chance of stone retention and stone drilling.

Fuel Efficiency Rating: E
Tyres have a fuel efficiency rating from A to G. A-rated tyres are the most fuel-efficient tyres and G-rated tyres are the least efficient.
Wet Grip Rating: E
Wet weather tyres are rated A to G. A choice of A-rated tyres instead of G-rated tyres would cut wet braking distances by 18 metres.
External Rolling Noise: 72db
Breaking down the noise level ratings:
One bar indicates 3 decibels or more under the current noise legislation. Two bars indicate an acceptable noise level for current and future noise legislation. Three bars indicate a tyre that will meet current noise mandated levels, but will fail future limits and need changing in the future.
