Tires Goodyear or Cooper

I put Goodyear Exhilarates on my 6 and they were awesome. Extremely good traction in the rain. Never really used them in winter weather, but they were phenomenal wet or dry.

Update.... I got the Goodyear Assurance ComfortDrives for the van after some research and discussion with Tire Rack. They have pretty much eliminated tire noise and sharp impacts, which is great.

I had cooper evo tours on my E90 bmw, they were good tires, a little on the noisy side but otherwise fine, especially for the price I paid.

Get any reputable tire: Falken Sincera, Continental Control Contact, Yokohama AVID, Hankook Kinergy, Cooper Evolution, etc. Spend a total of $50 more, and your tires will run much safer, and for even longer.

They were good tires IMHO. No complaints, other than the road noise from them was loud on the freeway.

I put Cooper CS5 Grand Touring's on my Fit this summer and they've been great!

We also had Goodyear TrailRunnner AT's on my wife's Cherokee before we sold it. They were solid, and did well in inclement weather.

Cooper AT3 XLT. Fantastic road manners, quiet, smooth, amazing wet/snow grip (also 3PMSF rated). Also, they look fantastic.

Cooper evolutions for me. Only issue I've had is getting high centered after driving by a snowbank

My experience with the Cooper AT3:

2011 Land Rover LR4. I Put about 50k miles on the set in 2 years. No punctures.

* Excellent on road manners

* Quiet, smooth.

* Even tread ware

* AWFUL (I.E. not safe) Snow and ice performance

* Poor mud traction, poor gravel traction, mehh wet traction.
