Tires Continental or Cooper
I have a pair of Cooper Discoverer tires on my Nissan. They are really quiet on the highway and very good on non-paved terrain like gravel and mud. Can’t speak for snow, don’t get a whole lot in my area. They are super tough too. I’ve screamed the side wall and nothing happened. I’ve had a nail go into the tread sideways and it didn’t puncture the tire. The only thing I will say is they pick up small debris like rocks if you spend a lot of time off road. But I would highly recommend them.
I just got myself a set of Cooper discoverer stronghold ATs 275/60/20. They were just released and according to my tire guy they are to compete with the falken wildpeaks. Got a really good price on them compared to the falkens and so far I have nothing but good things to say. If I remember correctly they are quite a bit lighter than other comparable tires. My mileage didn’t budge switching from 31.9” tires to 33”.
I personally like the Cooper AT3 XLT. Aggressive tread but quiet and very stable on pavement. Great wet traction.
New tires are Continental CrossContact LX25 - researched with my very loyal and reliable mechanic. Fingers crossed these wear better.
I’m using this as my daily and it sees no track time, so I like to keep it fun, while also not making my wallet cry. DCC: 2 right from comfort Drivetrain: Eco Engine sound: Sport ACC: Eco Steering: Sport
Went from an all season to an all terrain and the only thing I noticed was a low hum sticky gravel sound at low turning speeds. Highway driving was about the same if not a bit quieter.
Continental contact urban in 2” or 2.2” Feels as fast as my race king black chili for half the price
Continental double fighters have been doing me good for nearly a year! Like 1.9 inch tires and have a good amount of grip but roll nice too
I’m in eastern Canada, and I’ve had those Motomasters tires that are designed by Cooper. They are pretty good when new. Not as good as Nokians in deep snow, but pretty decent. They wear out quickly however, and the performance degrades significantly as they wear out. They lasted about 25,000km and I could not even get the car moving on a slightly inclined icy driveway.
The Version 1 of the Conti I had on my Z06 for a while and wasn't impressed, got greasy when hot which apparently is better now and slightly sharper turn in over the PS4S.
