What do you guys think about these 225/45R17 Zeon 2xs BS 91W Cooper tires, theyll be going on 17 rss racing black shown below. silver + black = sex



if it doesnt work its b/c the shitty web1000 host

 

..bump.

 

where is the pIc aT!?

 

sometimes it works, sometimes it dont. but what about the tires, the pic is just the rims. anyone heard anythinga bout them?

 

You will be hard pressed to find comments anywhere from people who have used these tires. I've been all over the internet, and nobody will offer comments. Either they are the best kept secret in motoring, or nobody has used them.

On the other hand, I just had a set installed on my 2001 SS this morning. I had 225/50/16 installed on my Rota Slipstreams. Before this set, I had 225/45/16 Toyo Proxes T1-S tires on the same rims. I drove about 80miles on them today, and I really like them. They are impressively quiet, and they seem as grippy as the Toyos. The treadwear/traction/temperature ratings are identical between the two tires. I got just under 25k miles on the Toyos, so time will tell how the Coopers will wear. Time will also tell how they really work. I expect some settling of the tire to occur after more driving, and I'll use them in more situations. I'll know then how they really compare to the Toyos. However, for the price, I think they are a real deal.

 

what Gen. is this going on? those wheels are nice, ever seen racing heart c5's? those are sick wheels.

I've never heard anything about coopers, but do know they're used in England quite a lot - may be a mixed bag. A quick look over the Tirerack.com site, for your size, shows that the Kumho Ecsta MX is available in that size and I'd highly reccomend these (I've got them on my car now, and am impresed). As well as the Advan Neova - it's more money than the MX, and I'm unsure if the grip is any better, but if you're inclined, you could give them a try ; although, the new Azenis will be coming in your size soon, as will the new Hankook tire. Not knowing your intedend use/climate , I assumed you were looking for a dry season, high performance tire - if that's not the case, then let us know what you need.

im in the market for some 19s but I really wnat the c5s but I keep telling myself to stay away. but then again I used to have the z5000s

 

oh and my god are those wheels ugly on top of the page

 

theyll be going on my 98 silver prelude and soon to have cf hood and trunk. im in cali LA area and it will rain quite a bit during winter suposed to be "el nino" or something. im getting them for 98$$ a tire not to mention a killer warranty. my whole family haas used cooper but their driving accord's and oddessy's...and dont drive hard so thats why I'm worried about the performance deal.

 

these look good on a 5th Gen.

and mabey these if you want black or gunmetal.

http://www.wheelsnext.com very good prices.

 

interested more about the tires though and the pics areant showing up.

 

Tomorrow I will be buying Cooper tires Zeon 2XS in 205-50-16 and i'll let you know how they ride. $430 out the door.
