I purchased this tire for my '07 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4, size 265/70 R17 (stock). I drive about 45,000 miles/year - ~85% highway miles, ~13% heavy industrial areas (refinery) and ~2% off-road. I was looking for a tire w/ good road manners, a tire that would not be easily destroyed driving inside a heavy industrial environment and a tire that would provide the best off-road traction available (while meeting the 1st two requirements!)
I have ~33,000 miles on these tires and have been very pleased w/ their performance. W/ lots of heavy industrial use there have been no punctures or chunks missing from the tread pattern. On the highway they have moderate road noise - about the same as BFG AT's, less than most mudders.
On the highway they provide sure footed handling, in the rain or dry. I have kept them rotated faithfully (every 5,000 miles) and have about 9/32" tread left - impressive considering my agressive driving habits and the mileage on them. Off-road they resist cuts and abrasions very well - no chunking on rocks, etc. Trail use and moderate loose mud they perform better than any all terrain - not quite as good as some MT, definitely not in the same leaque as full blown mudders like Super Swampers, etc.
I have not had the opportunity to try them in snow or ice - I live in the deep south! If you are looking for a full blown Off-road tire you will probably be dissapointed. If you are looking for a strong tire for a daily driver that will withstands tons of abuse, handle great and deliver better off-road than an All Terrain these are definitely worth your consideration.

I have a set of 275/70/17 ST's and they are awesome. I put them on a 2000 Chevy 4x4 with no lift and have tore up some mud, drove through the woods, in and out of skidder ruts, through thick sand, up and down 4 wheeler trails and in and out of creek beds. These tires do it all. Great in snow and would probably fare well in ice. I follow my buddy everywhere and he has 33 inch S.S. IROKs on a 2003 Chevy 4x4 with no lift. Great street ride with minimal noise and super off road capability. They are on a truck that I take to the trails weekly. COOPER finally got it right with this one.

Pros:

Great wear, work well in snow and rain too.
|
Cons:
|
Maintanence intensive (all mud tires are)
|

Pulled mine off a Durango with 66,000 miles on them and a friend used them on his F150 for another 5000+. Rotate every 6,000 miles, front cross to rear - rear straight to front. Forgetting to rotate will make tires noisy, and wear the outside edge of the front tires off (not an alignment problem!) If you forget to check your air or rotate regularly - buy a closed shoulder tire - it won't work in mud, but you can get more mileage with less maintenance!

Pros:

Wear great, excellent ice, snow,sand better than BFG's TA
|
Cons:
|
Just mud, but I still give it a 7 if a BFG's MT is a 10

We own a 2001 Tundra and I carefully selected the Cooper ST for work, ice, snow, sand and it is the best all around tire I have ever run. We have driven from the ice and snow of Washington to the sand and mud in Baja, performed excellent. I have had no tire damage once so ever in 40,000 miles. I’m purchasing a new set for this winter, even though I still have about 1/4 tread left.

We run these tires on all our trucks(285/75-16) and they are the only ones that ive seen hold up to the duramax's stupid indepentant front suspension. Just rotate them regularly and they wear so much better than anything else we've tried. Everything alse was either too squshy or cupped somthing crazy(even with regular rotate).

Kinda scary on ice

Running them on 4dr. jeep. Roads in Montana are either icy or muddy. My only problem with this tire was remedied by siping them.
