I put Cooper Discoverer Enduramax on it after purchasing last August. I love them. Quiet, smooth, have been great all around in rain, snow, ice, etc.

Pros: quiet, smooth, great all around

Cooper Tires

Between the two, Cooper is a well known brand that I've seen on every tire website and in every tire shop I've visited. Go with the Coopers, they're tried and tested and you can at least know they won't randomly blow out or have dangerously low grip.

Pros: tried and tested
Cons: dangerously low grip

I used to have that on my F150 and I fell in love with them. I didn't feel water on the road and they were good in mud and gravel. They were also fairly quiet. I love the fact that they're rated for winter use, so in Quebec where I'm from, I don't have to worry about a late tire change, but I would still not use them as a regular winter tire because they absolutely suck on ice. They're okay in snow.

Pros: good in mud and gravel
Cons: suck on ice, okay in snow
Vehicle: Ford

Firestone Tires

Looks fine other than it’s wet and has other people’s rubber on it. You’re gonna find out that the Indy 500 is not a track tire. So when you push really really hard, it’s gonna get really greasy and loose very quickly.

Cons: greasy and loose

I wanted to write this because there are almost no reviews on this tire online. Firestone claims it's a big improvement over the previous generation. Traction is good on wet and dry roads. Slippage prediction is also decent. Road noise is fine. Ride comfort (in terms of feeling the road) is really good. Steering responsiveness is ABYSMAL. It's like driving an aquarium on top of a trampoline. Due to the fact the sidewall seems to be made of marshmallows, it's quite terrifying doing any aggressive driving. Highway driving, making turns specifically, is terrifying. Overall: Do not buy unless it's for rears only, or you're driving a car that is exceptionally light weight. If the steering and body movement responsiveness was fixed, this would be an excellent tire. Sadly the responsiveness is so bad, the tire feels legitimately dangerous.

Pros: good traction, decent slippage prediction
Cons: abysmal steering responsiveness
Vehicle: Infiniti

Just bought 4 new cooper pro control tires. Been driving for a week and they are a bit loud and have a slight shake or vibration. Already took the car in to double check balance and they said it is fine. I am still getting the vibration.

Cons: loud, slight shake
