I have been a big proponent of cooper tires due to their manufacturing processes. I've since changed my mind due to the 3 blow outs we've had with the cs4 touring (2) and now most recent cs5 grand touring line. The cs5 tires were purchased less than a year ago. All have been on the sidewall and all have been on the freeway going at highway speeds. It appears cooper tires does not care about people lives! obviously quality is not one of their core values. Try being in traffic on the freeway and having a blow out those are the consequences. Fortunately nobody was hurt just extremely scared. I will be taking the tires back to express tires to see what kind of support they will provide. Btw only option to select is cs4 touring but these are the cs5 grand touring. Same problem built into the newer model.
While driving on the interstate, my back tire's sidewall blew out and I was forced to the side of the road. The tire was in good condition with plenty of tread depth left. Vehicle is parked on pavement and not grass to promote moisture/dry rot. After reading on line, michelin has recalled 100,000 tires last month. A coworker stated the same thing happened to their michelin tire last week. Please investigate smaller michelin tires. This is clearly a defective tire and seems to be very common. Luckily it was a back tire and I remained in control of the vehicle.
