Default Cooper Zeon RS3-S Tires

Anyone try these yet? Road and Track did a review on them and gave them a glowing review in comparison to the Michelin PS2 tire. And they have a price of $130 per tire........

Default Re: Cooper Zeon RS3-S Tires

I purchased my Crossfire about a month ago and had the small dealer I purchased it from put on new tires,because the ones they had were totally shot......In the short time I've had it, the tires have been great,impressed by handling and how quiet they are...but I don't really have anything to compare them to except the 6 or 7 Crossfires I test drove.....and the ride is far superior.

Track Time with the Cooper Zeon RS3-S and RS3-A Tires


They do get great reviews and 78 per cent of cooper tires are made here. There may also be a 75$ rebate .

I put a set of RS3-As on about a week and a half ago (245/40R19). First impressions i am very impressed. Dry traction is right with my Invo's and Wet traction absolutely blows them away. I was worried putting on tires with a 500 treadwear rating after taking some with 260 off but those worries are long gone. How well they wear is yet to be determined... the old zeons used to get quite loud after they had got some miles on them.

I seriously doubt there will be any difference in mpg with any change in tire for this car. Most of the time when they talk about better fuel efficient tires they are in the range of 2 to 3% better... so in my g8 we're talking .4 mpg haThanks Cadueitt

would you mind posting a few photos of the tires on the car?

Much appreciated.

I had the Zeon summers on a 2001 530i sport, I was pretty happy with them, a friend who I bought the car from had put them on and I continued with them even after wearing out.

I would buy Coopers again based on my experience and with the new tread pattern they should not be as noisy.
