yes and NO, the tires I have are the Cooper Discoverer AT3, NOT with the 4S, they I don't think come in the load rating of d or E , and I run E rated tires!Is this the tire you have? Looks like most of this series have a 50-65K mileage warranty in metric sizes.

BUT the tires I have also have the 50k warranty, BUT its NOT offered on the LT series tires with the E load rating, its ONLY for A-B C load rated tires, which I gather is the same for the one's you listed!
very few if ANY LT or load E tries that fit our ram's will have any mileage warranty on them, as too many factors can have excessive wear and tire makers know it and would loose there in tires wearing out too soon !
over my life time I have gone thru a LOT of tires , some times 2 sets a yr over the past almost 40 yrs on 3/4 ton and up pickup trucks
I Normally average about 36k on most tires, LONGEST lasting tires I have ever run have been Michelin's LTX A/T2 , have got to 50k and have tread left, but with winter coming would replace!
BUT they sucked off road, and in any type of mud, even mild, I am on a lot of farms and they sucked there,
if I ONLY ran pavement all the time, they would be the ONLY tire I would ever buy.
another flaw with them, is they hold and throw gravel/small stones like crazy, again only a issue if your driving off pavement, not a big issue!
and there price, there NOT cheap and odds's if you factor in there added costs, as to the shorter wear of better gripping tires in mud, it works out to about the same in $$$ being spent
folks that get hi miles out of tires (50-60-70-80k) blow my mind, I have never ever seen even half of most of that, then again I won;t run on very low treads, too many rains and snows and?? here worth me trying to squeeze a few extra miles out of tires, a truck in a ditch or hydro planing, will quickly surpass the saving on a extra miles from low tread tires! I value my safety over saving a few bucks!
its a person decision I know and not bashing, I just won't drive on low treads!
I am sure some folks can squeeze a few thousand miles or more past when I ditch my tires for new one's, but I have not had an accident due to tires since the 90's when I hydro planed on lower tread tires and no desire to try that again
75 mph and tires loosing it, ain;t no fun! LOL and sure wasn't cheap or pain free!
