Tires BRIDGESTONE or Cooper

Cooper has always done me right. Top tier stuff. I have no experience with Kelly.

I don't have experience with Kellys, but so far enjoying my Coopers.

Honestly, I'd take Cooper over Kelly without hesitation... Not that I have a problem with Kelly, but I have a lot of experience with Cooper and currently have them on my daily driver.

They were great for me. Looked awesome and held up for 40k miles or so.

I just put these on our Commodore in 245/45R18. They replaced a set of Bridgestone Potenza RE003's. Initial impression is that they aren't any noisier than the Potenza's, possibly a bit quieter. Haven't driven in a heavy rain yet but the performance on slick roads was also good. My biggest concern is that they were going to totally spoil the handling but cornering at civilised speeds is still satisfying. Certainly they don't have anywhere near the dry grip of the Potenza's but they're fine for everyday use.

The summer tire finally wore out and I’m running the Coopers till they are done. They’ve been a good tire for the price.

I just replaced the tires on my 21 Outback with Cooper ProControl. Same tire size as you. I have young kids as well and do family duty for vacations school etc.

So far so good. I previously had the stock Yokohamas and they weren’t very good. Barely got 50k out of them.

16k miles and I’m down to 6/32 secs with my Weatherpeaks.

Late to the party here, but just got 2 blowouts this morning with these bridgestones in my mazda 3 turbo hatch.

Yep same thing happened to me, my OEM tires were shit. I had like 16k on mine. Normal driving, not aggressive or anything. Literally only lasted a year. Mine were Bridgestones.
