Had Michelin PS3s on the front and these were excellent...…..only slight downside was wheelspin in wet if pulling away fast. One of the Michelin's scrubbed out so needed a new tire. Company didn't have Michelin so bought Cooper Zeon CS Sport as had one already and was very impressed. Asked the company to switch the remaining PS3 from front to back and have CS Sports on the front. Very impressed. Lots of tread, including at the sides. They grip well in wet and dry. Some tests have scored lower for noise and/or comfort...….not so on my car ! Still have plenty of tread . Would recommend.

Changed a rear near side tire from a Marshal to the Cooper Zeon CS Sport. Tire replacement was owing to the Marshal having developed splits in the inner tire wall. Note that I drive a Fiesta ST (2008) and I have 3 Michelin PS3s' (which are fantastic) on the other 3 corners. The garage didn't have a Michelin PS3 in stock and I needed a tire immediately. They offered me the Cooper, which I had heard of but not had experience of. Where the Marshal was quite stiff and the back end of the car would slide if pushed round a roundabout or sharp corner the Cooper handles all this. Also, where the Marshal was quite noisy the Cooper is quiet and much more comfortable, especially over speed humps and the odd pothole that is impossible to avoid. I still put the PS3 above but the Cooper Zeon CS Sport comes a close second. Had the tire for 8 months and great in dry and wet.....no issues to report. Tested and recommended by David Coultard (watch the You Tube video). Performs well with the PS3s' .......Very Happy with the tire.

Switched from all-corners Continental SSR3 RFs to these, and the difference is almost day and night. Car is a lot less crashy with a lot less road noise, accidentally hitting potholes no longer make the car feel like it's hit a wall and the car feels overall much smoother. The Conti SSR3's warmed up quicker and felt more solid in harsh cornering, but for daily driving these are absolutely superb, especially coupled with the lifetime warranty.

I have to say mt Cooper Zeons grip the road well in most conditions, are very quiet and have had no impact on mpg. They exceed my previous Bridgestones in most areas except the elephant in the room, TYRE WEAR. On a quick visit to Mercedes for a free winter check they informed me I will need to replace my rear tires soon, I thought that's strange, I have only had them 5 months and for just over 9000 miles, I shrugged it off as Sales speak. It was pouring with rain when I collected the car so could only check them the next day. They are almost worn down to the little tabs between the tread. How did that happen! Same driving style, same mpg, similar miles, the same roads. My last set of Tires went well over 20k and he set before over 30k. The Coopers now ready for replacement at 10k absolutely Shocked.

looking at the other reviews for the Peugeot 508 RXH the 21000 miles I got from the Coopers was excellent and certainly better than the Dunlops I had on originaly. Very quiet tires especially when new and never had any issues with grip in either wet or dry. I guess I am a fairly sedate driver, but at 50000 miles a year I have a pretty good idea what I am looking for in a tire and will certainly by coopers againb

A very good tire. The Coopers replaced Conti Sport Contact 3s and are head and shoulders above them in terms of dry grip, wet grip - which is brilliant - and road noise, with the Coopers being very much quieter. Feedback is really very good and certainly better than the Continentals and progressiveness is also excellent with plenty of warning (very slight understeer) as the tires approach their limit. Again, these are very comfortable tires compared to the Contis and in use have hardly worn at all in the thousand miles that they've been on the car. I really can't fault them for the price.

These tires are superb set of four were only £320 from Camskill my Impreza is running nearly 400 and these tires stick like glue wet grip is excellent as these are A rated and dry grip is brilliant also. Had Falkens before these and with high speed cornering they didn't feel as sure footed as the Coopers. I would probably describe these as a mid range tire and having not had Michelins or Goodyears etc can't compare them but can't see how a more expensive tire would be much better, as these tires have handled anything I've thrown at them. Can't comment on wear yet not had them long enough.
