Tires Kumho or Cooper

Go with the Khumo. They’re a reputable brand. I’ve heard of some people having issues with the warranty. My personal first hand; they were a great performing tire. I rode mine hard though. So they only lasted about a year and half. It was the MT.

Kumho is a well known brand compared to the rest. I'd do kumho solus before any of them.

Nothing wrong with Cooper tires. I've the S/Ts on my 2000 4runner years ago. They were amazing.

Since last time you saw it I upgraded the brakes to 312mm rotors with ATE 57 calipers in front and 256mm disk brakes in the rear and replaced the heavy Mercedes replica 18" wheels with BBS RK's in 8J 17 wrapped in sticky kumho KU-36 rubber.

Cooper 100%. The Coopers are light, have a great A/T tread, and will do well in snow.

EDIT: And they last forever. I had 55k on the A/T3s on my last truck when I sold it, and they still had plenty of life left.

I'm now on my third set of Cooper At3s and will continue to buy them. Good road manners, good in dry/wet, and predictably confident in snow. I'm in a New England and have plowed with all three trucks I put the Coopers on- I had them on an 01 Ram, 14 F150, and now on my 15 Sierra 1500. Very good tire for the money. Highly recommend.

Cooper makes some fantastic tires. I run the Zeon LTZ on my Ram, and the rain/snow performance is awesome.

He immediately switched to the cooper's st Maxx tires. He has had this truck a 1 year maybe a year and a half and has already destroyed the 3 yr/36,000 mi basic, 5 yr/60,000 mi powertrain warranty. These tires went on when the truck was still pretty much new.

I have those Kumhos and I am not a fan. They are quiet, but not nearly as sharp as the RE050s they replaced, but the car moved from Texas to Ohio and I had to have all-seasons. I have 50,000 on one pair and 20,000 on the other (blew out 2 sidewalls in winter potholes) and I am going to use them through the summer and then put something else on for next winter (even though there's still a lot of tread there), probably Continental DWS. They are inexpensive, last forever (if you stay out of potholes) but feel awfully soft on turnin. Not really bad, just not my thing.

I had a set of kumho's on my 08 GTI and they were terrible. Very expensive and terrible performance.
