Cooper Zeon 4XS Tyres

Has anyone had any experience of Cooper Zeon 4XS tyres on their X5? I currently have Diamaris on but with the miles I am doing the Coopers would be far more economical? Many thanks for any feedback.

I usually don't use economical as a criteria on something as essential to my safety.

I'm doing 30k motorway miles a year so obviously money is a factor. Since the tyres are EU certified I would expect decent safety - is that unrealistic?

Even if they are certified , there are different levels of quality. I'm just giving you my opinion , only because your tires and brakes are the 2 most important things on your car. Just my .02

I think they look like decent enough tires, they are specifically designed for premium SUVs like the cayenne, X5 etc.

Cooper has always made a decent tire. this is their 1st attempt at a sport suv tire? You can't even get the Diamaris anymore. I'd think any tire thats going to be used mainly on the freeway will give you decent miles.

Cooper and General are two American companies that produce their tires largely in the states and are of excellent quality. If you're considering it, I would do it.

FYI - I have run General Altimax HPs on my 17" wheels and loved their wet driving performance. Superb!

I'm now currently running Nokian WR G2 SUV all season tires.
