    Cooper st.

    Just quick question, is $330 for cooper tyres fitted and balanced a good deal?
    Cheers Mick

    Was originally quoted $420 in orange, so this seems good, but not sure about buying cooper.

    My GUIV hated the 265/75/17 cooper STs, hated them, shook its head, scrubbed them out, they were noisy, terrible tyre on it. Hated them.

    I have a set of 315/75/16s Cooper STs for my GQ and loved them, i have them on the GUIV now and it loves them too. but it does drag the back side out of the car with a trailer on with that size. Runs straight and true though.

    Not sure i'd ever buy another set of Coopers though.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    My Uncle used coopers on his trip to the cape, on a ford courier and trailer and got 5 flats on that trip. Hope that helps mate.

    Oh and seeing how any question about tyres brings out every man and his dog's stories, Here's mine: A mate got the cooper stt's a few months before me and loves them. At 16000 k's he'd worn 2mm off the front and 4mm off the rear (in a GQ) No punctures, really good grip in the stiffer mud. I havent put as many k's on mine (car is a bit sick atm) but they've been great so far.

    Thanks for your feedback, prices vary from store to store, $440 to $330 fitted, so it does pay to shop around. I have also heard some good and bad reports on these tyres.

    It will all come down to personal choice in the end.
    Cheers Mick
