Cooper Tyres have reason to be proud this month. Their Discoverer STT 4×4 off road tyre helped Dakar Rally veteran Xavier Foj to achieve 2nd place in the T2 production car class of the 2010 Dakar held in Argentina and Chile. Foj said that the Toyota Landcruiser KXR, along with the Cooper Discoverer STT tyres “have performed superbly”.
To further endorse the Discoverer STT tyres Foj said “the main quality of these tyres is their tremendous versatility. I can lower the tyre pressure to 0.6 bar without fear of the tyre coming off its rim and can even cover the odd section of track or link to another area of sand without the need to inflate again. The Discoverer STT tyres are outstanding due to their reliability and great capacity for adapting to any type of terrain, which is fundamental in a rally such as the Dakar where, in one single special stage, you can drive on very different surfaces.”
