I work in a Cooper Tire facility and can answer any question that anyone may have. We make M.T., Procomp, Cooper's, and others.

Any ideas why mine wore out after 33,000 miles instead of the 50,000 they are warranted for?

Short wheelbase is what I was told. I'll maybe get 40,000 miles out of mine.

Was at Wally World this morning and they have Goodyear Tracker II Lt225/75R16 E rated tires for $100 each. Is this tire decent? :evil:

I just bought the Cooper STT and so far I'm happy, It's an aggresive tire but surprisingly quiet on the highway

I'd think they growl like a banshee without the center strip.

Okay then, my understanding of tires and composition of tires is limited however it appears that the harder compound tires give higher mileage and less grip than the softer tire which would give the exact opposite. Then the tread pattern design comes into the equation and this is for the aesthetic appeal of the tire and the ability of the tire to perform in wet circumstances.

So what i need to find is a tire that fits somewhere in the middle and gives both durance and handling. :wink:
