Coopers or Pro comps

Alright I've found a great price on some 315/75 Cooper Discovery S/T Mud terrains, and some Pro Comp Xtreme All terrains. They are both priced the same at $525 for 4. The price is unbeatable from what I can see. They are "blems" though, uniformity blemished.

What exactly does "blem" mean? Is it a bad thing that would negate the price difference?

Which tire is better between those two, considering the price is the same. I don't really need a Mud terrain but I wouldn't care to have it.

Much cheaper than the Toyo open countrys I had been planning to get at $711 for 4.

Both are good tires....I'm partial to Cooper poopers. Been good to me over the years. But I had good luck the one time I ran Pro Comp brand tires. Just didn't like them in the snow

Well I went with the Coopers. The Coopers seemed to have great reviews and people were happy with them. I mainly just want a good tire with a long tread life. Only off road my trucks see is around on the farm.

I bought the tires from nebraskatire.com. It was $525, free shipping, for a set of four tires in either one of the tires I mentioned. 315/75/16

DodgeCummins98,
To answer the question "What exactly does "blem" mean? Is it a bad thing that would negate the price difference? "

Blem means the tire is Blemished.

There is usually a visual imperfection in the tire. Like, The "B" in "BFG" is visibly distorted, or half there.

The tire is still OK, or they wouldn't sell it

procomp at's last longer then the cooper mt's. I had a buddy buy the coopers when I bought a set of procomps and I got 20k more miles on mine then he got. But he loved his coopers
