Considering the brand as a replacement after my Michelins wear out (may be a while).
TIA, re.ac.tor  |
COOPERS ARE OK, SOME PEOPLE LOVEM.
THEY ARE A LESS EXPENSIVE TIRE. IMHO THEY ARE NO MICHELIN, BUT DON'T COST AS MUCH EITHER. OH BOY, ON GOING TO RAMBLE ON HERE A MINUTE.
EVERYONE'S DRIVING SITUATION IS DIFFERENT AND THEREFORE A PARTICULAR BRAND OR TIRE TYPE MAY BE MORE SUITABLE FOR YOUR NEEDS.
NOW, IF YOU DON'T DRIVE OR GO OFF ROAD MUCH A LESS EXPENSIVE TIRE WOULD PROBABLY WORK FINE. A MORE EXPENSE BRAND TIRE MAY NOT SEEM TO BE A VALUE WHEN YOU'RE SHELLING OUT THE CASH, BUT WILL GIVE MORE BENEFITS IN THE LONG RUN. BETTER TREAD LIFE, LESS IRREGULAR WEAR, FEWER INJURIES WHICH MAY TAKE THE TIRE OUT OF SERVICE PREMATURELY.
THANKS FOR YOUR QUESTION.
