Tires Toyo or Cooper

Toyos were my favorite tire on my 350z

Had a set of Proxes Sport a few years ago. Overall they’re really good tires. Smooth, responsive, predictable at the limit, and pretty quiet too.

Much better in all conditions than the Cooper AT3 S4s they replaced (though to be fair they were older and ready to be replaced). They ride quietly, comfortably aren’t killing my gas mileage and performed very very well in the recent snow.

Toyo’s hands down best tire out there for regular driving in dry, snow and rain and medium off roading tasks. Quiet and well mannered

Toyo AT3’s have been awesome for me! I have KO2s on my GX470 and I’m not mad at them, but will probably go to Toyos when it’s time!

Toyo Proxes Sport on my MK3.5 1.5TDCi. Really surprised with the performance of the tires, car handles beautifully.

Just switched from the Nittos to the Toyos and am super happy. Haven't taken them off road yet, but on road they're surprisingly quiet.

The Toyo open county tires from the factory are loud but I was warned about that.

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.

Had a much better looking set of old coopers ruin a very clean square body s10 bed. The entire tread patch separated and beat the bottom corners round before it came off.
