What are your thought on these Cooper Zeon 2XS tires? I have done some research on them and they seem to have very good reviews from people who have them… But I’m not sure how I feel with seeing Cooper stamped on the side of my tire.  
Maybe I’m being little to biased because they are not know for making high performance tires, and the whole image thing… But I can get a smoking deal on them.

The other tires I was looking at getting are the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3, Toyo Proxes T1R, and Yokohama Advan Neova AD-07.

They look like a Michelin Pilot Sport knock-off to me. But hey, if they are GOOD knock offs and are cheaper, why not? Michelin PS tires are great to begin with.

Everyone will point and laugh.😛

I typically don’t take note of tire brand on another person’s car unless its something unusual and these are sans COOPER in white letters, so I think you are OK.

If the reviews are good and seem to be from people who know something about tired, then go for it.

I knew these where going to pop up. In the reviews and the comments I have read about the Pilots is, they suck in the rain. “hard to control once it lost traction”. “Initial turn-in felt like it would grip but gave up early. You had to be gentle with the inputs to make it hold on”.
