In day to day use the tires performed well in both dry and wet conditions.
However, when towing a 1400 kg caravan, especially in the wet, the grip from standstill was not very good compared to the originally fitted Micheline tires. Also found this tire to wear very quickly as on the original it was possible to get nearly 20000 miles. For my use I would not choose this type of tire again
This observation was from 7000-9500 miles. The car is fitted with a an automatic gearbox that can be manually over ridden when required. When towing I would consider myself as a conservative driver on open roads will tow at 60 mph. When not towing, visible bends are taken at speed.

Put these on a Honda del Sol because I needed a mileage tire and 15K miles since, they are working fine. I can't comment on snow living in Texas, but everything else they handle admirably. I've always used lower end high performance tires in the past, and the Cooper CS4 doesn't have the grip of those tires in the dry. But dry grip is still very good and they're very progressive at the limit with excellent feedback without being harsh. In the wet they are fantastic, 85 mph in Texas downpour without a hint of hydroplaning, very impressive in my opinion. They show very little wear at 15K miles; the past high performance tires I've used would been more than 1/2 way gone at 15K. They are the quietest tire I've ever had on this car, but the del Sol is a noisy car independent of the tire used so one would hear any tire. On anything other than well worn cement, there is no whine; very quiet on asphalt. They run very cool; I typically cruise at 85 mph for more than an hour straight in 95 degree Fahrenheit, and I can immediately leave my hand on the drive tires for more than 3 seconds (the old 'thumb test' for transistors :) . They've maintained their balance (with very little weight); I'd definitely recommend and buy again.

07 Mazda3, this is the second set with 127k. Out here in W.Pa we get a bit of everything weather wise, and these tires handle it all. I wouldn't buy or trust any other tire, you can't go wrong with this tire! Made in the good ole USA!!!!

Not a bad tire, got 51,000Km out of them and still had some life left in them when I replaced them. However, as they wore down the grip reduced significantly. Noticed the back of my SUV starting to slide a bit when going through roundabouts quickly - this never happened with the previous Goodyear tires that I ran to the limit. Also discovered that a lot of dealers aren't carrying these tires anymore - think it might have to do with Coopers Milage Warranty which is no longer applicable in Australia... to my knowledge. I understand a lot of tire dealers got stuck with these warranty claims. I've now changed to Pirelli Scorpion STR tires - early days, but they seem pretty good so far.
