Cooper Evolution Winter 225/55R18 98T Tire

Cooper has allways been my choice in tire longjeverty and performance. this style is ferpect for winter and summer driving. the tred pattern is great for treading snow and quit driving on dry pavement. good traction on snow and rain. i give this product an A+.

I waited to write this review until we had a real snowfall. The performance of these tires was better than expected. We got a foot of snow. It took longer to dig out the stairs and the path to the car than it did to drive through the snow and up to the street. For perspective, I live on 2/3 of an acre. The driveway is at a minimum of 13% grade. Up or down is spooky when dry ground. Imagine with snow & ice. These tires not only kept their traction, but they had no trouble getting me up the drive. I turned & came back down, with my snow & ice button as well as the hill button for my Subaru and there was no issue or sliding. I am very impressed and happy that these tires performed the way they were supposed to. I would recommend these to anyone who lives on unconventional land.

I have bought a lot of cooper tires. I bought these particular tires for my work vehicle, a 2008 manual 2 door ford focus and let me tell you that little thing went everywhere with these tires. I was out in a bad snow storm watching trucks and multiple other cars wreck or get stuck and I could go dang near the speed limit with these on packed snow no problem. I tested them in a yard with 8 inches of snow and the only thing that eventually stopped me was the giant pile of snow in front of my bumper. These are fantastic tires

SUMMARY: These are the snow tires to buy for reliable winter grip at a budget price. BACKSTORY: Winter arrived here in New England and my all-season front tires were down to the wear-bars. Since I intend to sell this minivan come summertime, I only wanted to spend a bare minimum. The rear all-seasons were OK, so I opted to deploy these Coopers only on the front wheels to tackle this Massachusetts winter and my steep driveway. I figured if I didn't get the traction and control I desired, I could always buy two more for the rear wheels. Some reviews mentioned good dry and rain traction; others mentioned minimal road noise. Most reviews checked the boxes for good snow and ice traction. They were all accurate! I've been able to climb, accelerate, brake, and turn with confident control using these Coops on a variety of snow, slush, ice, and rain. Again – I ONLY BOUGHT TWO TIRES FOR THE FRONT WHEELS! With my all-seasons, I'd sometimes have to get a running start to climb up my slippery driveway; most times I'd have to take two or three passes. With these Coops, I've successfully slow-rolled up my driveway in conditions where I could barely walk down the driveway without flooping. In the past, I've owned Nokian Hakkepellitas (which were awesome). These Coopers had similar tread design and plenty of sipes. And from what I've read, the sipes are where it's at on snow tires. BOTTOM LINE: • FWD Minivan • Two tires mounted on front wheels only • Negligible highway noise • Excellent grip and control on uphill icy driveway • All around solid performance on snow, slush, rain, and ice. • RECOMMENDED

Put these on my impala here in northern Michigan and im beyond glad, I loved cooper before but now ill never go to a different brand, these are smooth, they grip amazingly in slush and 1ft + of snow and they do well 80mph+ as well! They look amazing for their size and u can tell they are made with quality material for lomg durability

Nice replacement tire. deep treads, ez to mount and only took 1 oz of wt to balance tire. DOT at 2024; so far rides smooth , no noise yet. bead seals no leaks, will buy again next year replacement . Great Price too before it went up..

I’m a truck driver and in the middle of the day when it starts snowing I can’t just come back to work so sometimes when I get back to work it’s already been snowing for eight hours.I live in Pennsylvania where we get a good bit of snow and I bought these for my Front Wheel Drive Toyota Corolla. They have a great tread pattern that works great and deep snow. When these wear out, I will definitely buy another pair.

Initial impressions. For rally-style use on loose dirt surfaces (sandy, gravely, dry or wet) these tires have amazing bite. I knew in these conditions they would be better than the old all seeason Pilot Sport set, but I wasn't prepared for how much harder my AWD VW Golf accelerates off the pavement. Scandinavian flicks are very manageable and can/should be executed at noticeably higher speeds. Unless I have some unforseen problem, I don't see myself mounting any other tires on my winter set of wheels. I am excited to see what they can do in the snow.

A fairly open aggressive tread pattern but not too noisy on the road. I would have preferred to have bought them with the studs already installed because not everyone has a stud gun. The seller did not respond to my question about the availability of stud installation.

Got studs installed. Great winter tires
