Tires Cooper or Laufenn
I just put 4 255/45R19's Cooper pro controls on my 2015 ford taurus limited. I live in Wisconsin and it's winter so I got to test them in the snow. Not bad for all seasons. I've driven with Bridgestone Blizzak winter tires and they're for sure not at that level but good enough grip, I felt confident ish in deep snow.
I have them on my 4Runner replacing prior at3 4s tires. Took a chance on them. I find them even better the prior at3 4s - as quiet as the original stocks. smooth easy riding on highway, outstanding in snow and slush - had them in a mini blizzard the first week. slightly more “aggressive” aesthetic if that’s your thing. Very happy with them.
Hands down the Cooper Cobra Instinct out of those listed.
I have a 2017 cx5 gt. I live in Pennsylvania with horrible roads, so I went with cooper discoverer enduramax, and I love them. Performed great in the two snow storms so far.
The cooper tires, just had them installed on my work van, good traction, no noise
Incredible in mud and snow. I have them on an f350 dually. It will literally go anywhere on the jobsite. I also put them on my personal f150 I was so impressed. I've plowed through 3' snow drifts with ease.
Coopers are good tires if you rotate them they literally last forever. I’ve managed to get 80-100,000 good kms out of the discoverer stt pro and st max. Ran AT3s as well and got even more as you don’t really have big lugs to lose anyway.
This is the 1st gen MotoMaster Winter Edge tires made by Cooper, bought in 2017. Noticed this damage, when I took them off for Summer Tire swap earlier this year, some are on the outer edge, others on the inner edge.
Cooper tires are a joke. I just got a set and one popped on a gravel road and the other just started losing air for no reason.
....and I'll throw in another vote for the Continental DWS 06. Also relevant to this thread - I bought my '11 Range Rover Sport in January, and it had Laufenn tires, the cheapest option on Tire Rack in the proper size. They had plenty of tread life but they were not great - noisy, not a lot of grip in any conditions - so first excuse I had, I swapped on the Continentals, and they are substantially better at everything.
