Tires BRIDGESTONE or Cooper

Slippery situations involving rain and snow have fully convinced me of their grip. Get them. I have 22s and still bulldoze through most. Wet, muddy hills though? No problem. Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S 285/50/22 is specifically what I have. Very quiet.

I paid $220 for a set of 4 Bridgestone tires that were like 2 years old on my Camry.

Set of staggered Bridgestone Blizzak tires, used for one season in Colorado (<5k miles), no longer need them. These came off a 2021 Volkswagen ID.4 with the 19 inch wheels. They worked great for us in Colorado.

I just got them for my Accord last week. So far they have been a good buy. They are far quieter and feel grippier on wet pavement than the Goodyear Eagle LS-2s that they replaced. I'll ll have to see how they wear, and feel how their performance changes over time.

Put a set on my 2017 Ford Explorer Limited up sized slightly 255/55/20 . Had for 2 weeks and have been very pleased with the performance. We have had heavy rain, Snow and ice and they have been very predictable.

Blizzak WS90. Hands down, best winter tire for cars.

But recently tried the Bridgestone Blizzak DM 2 very nice ride.

Mine came with the same Bridgestones. They were ok, had decent grip. I replaced them with Pilot Sport 4Ss which seem a little quieter and softer-riding.

Here is my experience with Cooper Tires. I purchased 4(180.00) each Cooper Discoverer A/T All-Season 275/55R20 60,000-mile warranty. For my Suburban that only sees highway. on Feb 18 2022. On April 2023 a very large bulge was noticed by a car that was behind me on the highway and let me know about the problem. That’s how big it was, a car behind me saw it. I took the car to the store where I bought the tires to see if they would warranty the tire. They had no idea how to even do a warranty. I was told to try another Cooper dealer, so I tried two. They wouldn’t even look at the tire, since they weren’t purchased there. I then paid 190.80 for a new tire. I had to send the bad tire into Cooper, and it was found to be a manufacturing defect. Cooper did end up giving me 120.00 back. The bad news is Dec. 30 2023 I noticed another bulge on a different tire. These tires still have 12/32” tread they look like new. I contacted Cooper again in regards to the new bulge. No response yet on that tire. I bought another and replaced it. Dealing with Cooper warranty is a joke. More bad news. March 13 2024 I had another bulge on another tire. These tires are just over a year old, I have never had issues like this before. At this point I bought 4 new tires not Cooper ever again. All 3 tires bulged the same way inside sidewall and not a small bulge.

Had a much better looking set of old coopers ruin a very clean square body s10 bed. The entire tread patch separated and beat the bottom corners round before it came off.
