DUNLOP Tires all the way baby!
So are Cooper tires worth a dang? Someone on here once said they are good quality tires.
I am surprise that this tread have gone on for a long time.

Just go to tirerack.com and review the tires there. Whats the problem?

Tirerack doesn't sell every brand, such as Cooper tires.
I have seriously been thinking about some Continental ContiExtremeContacts,


Continental Tires

they do come in the 205-55-15 V-rated, but not in the 16 inch for my GTS wheels,,,

and if you have a GT, especially with the sport suspension package, anything less than a V-rated tire handles like crap. I tried it on mine, some S-rated 225-50-15's, felt like I was driving on under-inflated snow tires,
just got some brand called "VISA" was told that they where made by "falken" they are 205/50/16....they are also V-rated....works nice for me!
Cooper makes tires for quite a few different companys. A lot of the house brands like the futura at Pep Boys are made by Cooper,,,

Check out this list of names Cooper manufactures:

Cooper tire list


Unfortunately, this is from some lawsuit, I doubt they are any worse than any other maker...I have had problems with all brands of tires.
