Tires Hankook or Cooper

I switched to a hybrid highway/gravel tire made by Cooper and sold through Les Schawb after 9 years running ATs on my Sprinter. The difference in road noise is profound.

Out of these options.

Cooper 10/10

Personally, I like Uniroyals but Cooper is good too.

Coopers are WAY better tires than the Uniroyal or Westlake...

Hankook su best buy gume, pogledaj testove guma, uvek su tu negde sa premium brendovima po ocenama, a jeftinije su dosta. Ja baš imam 205/65/15 hankook ventus prime, evo od marta 2018, i dalje su kao nove.

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.

Did the switch today. Ill try to report back on range. over original 47.5K miles, i was getting 289 kw/mile on 2020 LR MY with 20 inch inductions and OG goodyears. Madison Wi weather pattern. I am pretty fanatical about maxing out range on highway (drafting behind sprinter vans, etc) so curious to see what happens. Even if range stays the same, worth it for tire cost reduction, comfort, and pothole protection. I plan on using these year round as I am not a fast or aggressive driver and just want cheaper tires and better winter performance than the horrible good years.

I went with the Hankook (I know you said you didn't want them but wanted to share my experience) and have been very happy with them. Live in Sweden and we have this winter received unusually much of both black ice and deep snow. The Hankook's have worked surprisingly well during this winter as well as the dryer and warmer period before the winter arrived (got them after summer).

I had Venus V2s on my old shitty mustang. They were decent though their performance in the wet left a bit to be desired.

Bridgestone, Michelin or Pirelli. Cooper a decent mid brand. Stay away from Hankook.
