Tires Cooper or Vredestein

The Cooper Zeon are significantly better, especially in the rain. I don't generally *try* to roast my tires, but there's been many situations where these Zeon tires have held grip where the Extensa would undoubtedly let loose.

For Winter tyres, in terms of noise and harshness, the Vredestein Wintrac Pro and Hankook Winter i*cept Evo³ are trading blows with each other. I noticed, that the Hankook is noisier on some surfaces, while the Vredestein is on others. Same with bumps. Neither is crashy though or loud. The noise they make it is also a low tone, so not disturbing.

I ride the tires at 42 psi and currently w/ new Cooper Instincts at 44 psi returning comparable mileage.

Vredestein Quatrac Pro All Weather tires were used about 8 -9 months - approximately 6K miles. Excellent condition. 2 Tires have 9/32” wear, one with 8/32" and last one just under 8/32" (new is 10/32)

I picked up some Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail ATs for my 2017 RAV4 AWD, in 235/70r16. I haven't seen many reviews of these yet, so I wanted to give some of my thoughts. I've only had them for about a week so I can't give any advice on how they'll hold up, but I have loved them so far. In central PA, we've also had a nice variety of weather in the period since I've gotten them, so they've been tested in several conditions already.

* Wet Traction - 9.5/10

* Really confidence-inspiring wet grip. This is always a question mark with AT tires, but absolutely no trouble at all with these. Braking is especially impressive, even in standing water.

* Dry Traction - 8/10

* Nothing to complain about here - stopping distance and dry traction are both more than adequate for an all-terrain tire.

* Snow Traction - 9/10

* Really impressive snow traction. I tested in deep snow and a variety of slushy conditions. The RAV4 had no trouble at all going through 4-6 inches of snow (on grass), even even starting up a hill in those conditions provided no trouble at all. Braking is also impressive in the snow, inspiring confidence on my snow-covered driveway.

* Comfort/Noise 8/10

* They definitely are a little bit stiffer going over bumps than the standard all-season tires that were on the vehicle before, but nothing I would consider to be viscerally unpleasant. Noise is relatively silent, with the addition of maybe a very slight hum at highway speeds.

Overall, I have absolutely no regrets with my purchase, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these for a person who is interested in a fairly rugged tire that can handle all conditions adequately.

I put 12k miles on Quatrac Pro tries with my Rav4 Prime - quite happy with them and they are barely worn in. Lots of highway driving as I work from home. They were much quieter than the stock tires and the grip was really good in the wet (it rains a lot in my area).

I immediately swapped the 20's with the OEM Goodyears for 19's with Vredestein Wintrac Pros.

Quatrac Pros. All weather severe snow and rated tops for wet traction to boot.

I've bought a set of quatrac 5 vredesteins for my X5 ... 2.5/3 years ago ... about halfway worn after 25k miles.

To be honest, in the dry ... easy to reach and surpass the adhesion limit at moderate speeds, feel is mehh at best. Quiet tires, decent tread life, comfortable but no where near the advertised levels. Currently during the winter ... moderate snow ... nothing spectacular, slightly better grip off the line than the duellers, fairly predictable, but a bit short on lateral grip ... so if you are braking and trying to cut a corner on snow ... better be awake so you don't end up in a ditch nose first.

I have Cooper tires on my F-150, tires around 4 years old now and they are cracking pretty bad too
