Cooper Tire Befriends Lone Wolf



Cooper Tire has been unveiled as the official supplier to the Lone Wolf Transglobal Expedition’s Land Rover Wolf Defender. Leaving the UK on 1 January, the Lone Wolf Transglobal Expedition aims to circumnavigate the globe in just 12 months, travelling through 40 countries in a vehicle originally designed and built to the specifications of the famous explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes.

But this is no ordinary road trip. Expedition leader Daniel Moylan will guide his support crew around the world’s most famous attractions, while chef Rowan Brown explores the gastronomic delights offered at each destination during their 12-month odyssey. In tow, a fully operational camera crew will capture all the action for a ten-part documentary series. Both Daniel, Rowan and the crew will be relying on Cooper tyres to literally keep the show on the road. So confident are the team in the abilities of the Cooper Discoverer STT tyre, they will take only three spares.

The Discoverer STT (Super Traction Tread) combines Cooper’s unique Armor-Tek3 Carcass Construction technology with a computer designed, non directional tread pattern to create a bold, aggressive tyre tough enough to conquer any terrain. Available from Cooper stockists throughout the UK, the Discoverer STT is available in 26 sizes, from 15-inch to 18-inch diameters, and comes in C, D and E load ratings.
