Evolution Winter 215/55R17 94H Tire

Cooper has allways been my choice in tire longjeverty and performance. this style is ferpect for winter and summer driving. the tred pattern is great for treading snow and quit driving on dry pavement. good traction on snow and rain. i give this product an A+.

A fairly open aggressive tread pattern but not too noisy on the road. I would have preferred to have bought them with the studs already installed because not everyone has a stud gun. The seller did not respond to my question about the availability of stud installation.

SUMMARY: These are the snow tires to buy for reliable winter grip at a budget price. BACKSTORY: Winter arrived here in New England and my all-season front tires were down to the wear-bars. Since I intend to sell this minivan come summertime, I only wanted to spend a bare minimum. The rear all-seasons were OK, so I opted to deploy these Coopers only on the front wheels to tackle this Massachusetts winter and my steep driveway. I figured if I didn't get the traction and control I desired, I could always buy two more for the rear wheels. Some reviews mentioned good dry and rain traction; others mentioned minimal road noise. Most reviews checked the boxes for good snow and ice traction. They were all accurate! I've been able to climb, accelerate, brake, and turn with confident control using these Coops on a variety of snow, slush, ice, and rain. Again – I ONLY BOUGHT TWO TIRES FOR THE FRONT WHEELS! With my all-seasons, I'd sometimes have to get a running start to climb up my slippery driveway; most times I'd have to take two or three passes. With these Coops, I've successfully slow-rolled up my driveway in conditions where I could barely walk down the driveway without flooping. In the past, I've owned Nokian Hakkepellitas (which were awesome). These Coopers had similar tread design and plenty of sipes. And from what I've read, the sipes are where it's at on snow tires. BOTTOM LINE: • FWD Minivan • Two tires mounted on front wheels only • Negligible highway noise • Excellent grip and control on uphill icy driveway • All around solid performance on snow, slush, rain, and ice. • RECOMMENDED

Nice replacement tire. deep treads, ez to mount and only took 1 oz of wt to balance tire. DOT at 2024; so far rides smooth , no noise yet. bead seals no leaks, will buy again next year replacement . Great Price too before it went up..

Excellent tire. Smooth ride and very good overall performance on my 2010 Ford Escape FWD only SUV, which likes to break the drive tire loose on any questionable terrain with a slippery surface. They have been on for over a year and are wearing even and great. Much better than expected for a winter tire.
