Tires Cooper or PHANTOM
Honestly, I'd take Cooper over Kelly without hesitation... Not that I have a problem with Kelly, but I have a lot of experience with Cooper and currently have them on my daily driver.
They were great for me. Looked awesome and held up for 40k miles or so.
The summer tire finally wore out and I’m running the Coopers till they are done. They’ve been a good tire for the price.
I don't know if it is still relevant, but I put this Phantom on my 2020 Ridgeline, and I’m very happy. I saved at least $200. The tires were a little bit noisy in the beginning but after the first month much better ???? keep road as champ even under heavy rain. Totally recommend this tires!
I just replaced the tires on my 21 Outback with Cooper ProControl. Same tire size as you. I have young kids as well and do family duty for vacations school etc.
So far so good. I previously had the stock Yokohamas and they weren’t very good. Barely got 50k out of them.
Have about 1000 miles on the Cooper Endeavors 18" rims on my Accord Coupe. Really like the diminished road noise, consistent road feel in wet and dry conditions only issue is that they are mushy when coming out of a pothole tend to slide a little.
I've never ran a car tire but I have had several sets of cooper cobras on a squarebody I rebuilt and my favorite I've ever ran was there STT mud tire. I could get around 55-60k miles out of those and they were aggressive with very little road noise for a mud tread. Unfortunately they quit making that style.
I use the Coopers on my suburban with a rear suspension kit and that’s Suburban handled like a dream. I was running 20 inch wheels on a 2003 suburban. I do it again any day no doubt no questions asked.
Phantoms are America's/Discount Tire own brand tire. They're a mid range tire that are for SUV's mainly but the smaller trucks like f-150, and the 1500's can run it if they are older from when they had the smaller frames. Better than the cheapest option out there, but don't expect top tier performance like, Michelin, Yokohama, and so on.
I'd recommend them if you do in city driving mainly, but they'll still be fine on highway driving. They're fine in wet weather as well. But again they arent top tier, but a decent budget tire so you don't break the bank.
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.
