Cooper Tires

Has anyone had any luck with Cooper tires on a fifth gen? Mainly the Lifeliner Touring SLE CVR.

Not on Nissan but my friend tried them on some junkie, he is of no good opinion on those coopers.

I think Tires are very important coz ur car runs on them, so why compromise ?!? I bet Kumho's 716 are just abt the same price as Coopers and are much better tires I believe from the reviews.

I just had them put on my 2k1 about a month ago and I have no complaints. They are considerably better than the Potenzas (which doesn't take much) in everything but cornering. The sidewalls are softer, which actually makes for a better ride. I got to try them out in the snow last night for the first time...HUGE improvement. I could actually move forward when I pressed on the gas, and stop when I hit the brake. A new experience in the Max! The price was definitley right...$535 mounted, balanced, plus road hazard. They are not a performance tire, but are definitely what they say they are...a good all season tire.

I've had them on my 2k1 for several months now. Have put about 6k on them. Had Pilot Sport A/S before these. For the $$$, they are a great deal. Traction in rain is as sure-footed as the Pilots. Haven't used them in the snow yet. Seem to be wearing well.

I have them on the rear with goodyear's on the front. I think they are good tires and the treadwear lasts forever. I bought the car about 9 months ago and I don't think they were new when I got it. They still have 9 treadwear left so they will last awhile. My goodyears I just got for the front replaced those ****ty potenzas.
