Tires Goodyear or Cooper

I have the coopers, they work great in the snow. Likely a bit quieter than the toyos

I had 245/55/r18 Goodyear eagle enforcer winter tires and they are probably the best winter tires I’ve ever had. Even on ice (at reasonable speeds) they handled well.

My first set (255 55 R20) lasted for 4 years. Same size on the 2nd set I had installed in late October of 2023. Superior wet traction in the heaviest of downpours. 80 mph on the parkway with no hiccups! Superb snow traction as well, as I was able to negotiate steep snowy roads with my 2020 Ford Explorer Limited Trim without losing traction.

Also if you can, get Goodyear assurance. We had them on my husband's old car and they were good. Very little road noise, compared to the cheap Kelly edges the dealership put on his Impreza before we bought it.

I just put Goodyear Eagle Exhilarates on my Miata, 205/45/17’s. So far, so good, also got the road hazard warranty due to the potholes around here.

Since changing to the Goodyear tires, I've hit similar potholes, sometimes even much HARDER, and haven't had a single popped/torn tire (though HAVE had issues with air leaking, which they attributed to the 'tag/sticker' still being on the tire when installed).

Cooper's are good tires. I'm sure it varies model to model, but I find the ST Maxx far better than the KO2s I had.

I have a set of Cooper 225/60/18 snow tires that grip really well, but I don't like the way they drive. The skinniness makes turning feel loose, and it feels like the car is going to flip (though it definitely isn't).

Those look like the same tread as Goodyear run-flats I have on a vehicle and they are looking similar. The tires were installed in 2020 and have less than 30k miles on them. Worst tire I’ve ever bought.

After having Goodyears put on mine, the differential is making noise.
