Tires Pirelli or Cooper

We just replaced the stock Yokos with Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail ATs. Don't have a lot of miles on them yet but they're quiet so far and have performed well in the rain.

I am overly happy with the Pirelli Scorpion All Season Plus 3 we got for our Forester.

Its a completely different car, especially when we upsized to 225/60-18.

Ive found tires on amazon for pretty cheap, even compared to tirerack, etc. And decent brands like pirelli and kumoto

For what it's worth the factory tires on my cbr300 were shockingly shit. When warm, however, is like your bike being on a railroad track. I swear they are vacuum powered or something, best upgrade in feel/confidence in the world.

I just changed my Pirellis with Michelin last week. The Pirellis have amazing grip but for commuting they wore within a year. The Michelins that I just got are better for touring. So I would recommend the Michelins!

I put Pirelli Angel GT on my CBR500 and they were insane. Stuck like glue and held up pretty well in terms of wear. A good value pick in my opinion.

I put a pair of Rosso 3’s on a z900. Spectacular tires. Grippy and agile. But they do wear more quickly- after 6000 miles the rear was worn, and I’m not hyper-aggressive.

Are used to put Pirelli‘s on my Panamera turbo. I found that they had much lower longevity than the Michelins.

I replaced the garbage Toyo tires with Pirelli Scorions at 4000 miles. One road trip with the OEM tired was enough I wanted rod of them.

Here is my experience with Cooper Tires. I purchased 4(180.00) each Cooper Discoverer A/T All-Season 275/55R20 60,000-mile warranty. For my Suburban that only sees highway. on Feb 18 2022. On April 2023 a very large bulge was noticed by a car that was behind me on the highway and let me know about the problem. That’s how big it was, a car behind me saw it. I took the car to the store where I bought the tires to see if they would warranty the tire. They had no idea how to even do a warranty. I was told to try another Cooper dealer, so I tried two. They wouldn’t even look at the tire, since they weren’t purchased there. I then paid 190.80 for a new tire. I had to send the bad tire into Cooper, and it was found to be a manufacturing defect. Cooper did end up giving me 120.00 back. The bad news is Dec. 30 2023 I noticed another bulge on a different tire. These tires still have 12/32” tread they look like new. I contacted Cooper again in regards to the new bulge. No response yet on that tire. I bought another and replaced it. Dealing with Cooper warranty is a joke. More bad news. March 13 2024 I had another bulge on another tire. These tires are just over a year old, I have never had issues like this before. At this point I bought 4 new tires not Cooper ever again. All 3 tires bulged the same way inside sidewall and not a small bulge.
