Cooper Zeon 2XS Reviews

Given 83% (breakdown) while driving a SEAT Cordoba Sport 2.0 (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 20,000 average miles
Really good tire, excellent grip in rain and wear is also good with 20000 miles they have 6 mm of tread depth so I hope they will last another 40000 miles

Given 70% (breakdown) while driving a Audi A5 (255-35-19-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 3,000 average miles
Excellent value for money in this size. A reasonable all round performance on a front drive Audi which could easily use tyres at twice the price. My comments are based on recent experience of Dunlop, Goodyear and continental. Used in the west of Scotland which in recent weeks has been wet and cold with some ice overnight. These tyres offer decent grip in the dry and rarely let go in the wet and cold. No snow yet however they are not winter tyres. Noise and comfort are no worse than the dunlops they replaced. I don't expect them to last as long as the dunlops but should match continental for wear. Tyres come with damage warranty, very useful in this area as the road surfaces are poor.

Given 69% (breakdown) while driving a Nissan R33 GTST 2.5 turbo RWD (245-35-19-W)
Driving on track for 0 spirited miles
i bought a pair of these brand new for my front wheels only one day before a open pit track day at keevil airfield 22 oct 2011

Im running 408 bhp and they were not too bad!
turning in at high speeds i got a tiny bit of understeer but when they warmed up they got much better

ive got bridgestone potenza's (275/35/19) on the rears and they are awesome and the coopers on the front didnt let me down to be fair

i would get these again but only at the same kinda price i paid
(private ebay ad £150 the pair brand new delivered)

at the normal price from regular tyre dealers id probably try another brand instead.. thats not bad mouthing the coopers mind - just why not not shop around and try them all..

the weather was 100% dry on my track day so i dont know what they are like in the wet etc

id give them: 7/10

Given 50% (breakdown) while driving a MG ZTT 135 diesel (225-45-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 11,000 average miles
Had these fitted to my MG ZTT. Generally not too bad but not fantastic in the wet. That said this is a 2 ton diesel auto barge with comfort suspension not a V8. Most horrifying is wear. I went to get a puncture fixed today and the other one (front) was down to 2mm with only 11,000 miles of easy driving. At 150 quid a corner they are not cheap, but in my opinion are a bigged up budget tyre. Bit the bullet and I have fitted Bridgestones RE50A this time so we'll see.

Given 33% (breakdown) while driving a BMW X5 3.0d Sport (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 4,500 average miles
i purchased 2 cooper xeons for my bmw x5 front last august 2010,i have covered 4500 miles since then and then tyres are nearly illegal,no harsh driving just everyday use.At £150 per tyre,i wont be using these again.National tyres in yeovil recommended these and have now washed there hands of the situation. The tarcking and camber is perfect so i put it down to the tyres,also the tyre bead has also started to perish on both sides.Never again.

Driving on a combination of roads for 0 average miles
Just purchased a Celica 190 with these fitted on rear, reasonable fun in the dry with some slippage allowing fun on roundabouts etc. However absolutely awful in the wet. Breaking away even when driven sensibly. Although lots of tread left, will be booking in for new tyres to replace these. Not for any performance vehicle, but might be ok on my girlfriends Golf diesel with 90 bhp, but would not pay for them.

Given 71% (breakdown) while driving a BMW M3 (255-35-19-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5,000 spirited miles
Fitted these gyres to my M3 last year and have covered around 5000 miles in them and I have to be honest i don't really have a bad word to say about them. I managed to get a pair of rear gyres in this size for £250 by shopping around and they have been no trouble. I have used the car at Santa pod on michelin pilot sports and these, both in the dry and both giving great results. Have also done plenty of winter driving in snow ice and still never let me down. Not sure about the wear on them yet as need to do a few more miles first, but really good so far, still have plenty of meat left on them.
The other reviews on this site seem to have quite a negative opinion of these gyres but I think they are well worth a look. Maybe because of the 35 profile they have a better sidewalk than other sizes in the same tyre?... Either way I am well pleased and would recommend the tyre to other BMW drivers.

Driving on a combination of roads for 6,000 average miles
These tyres are dreadfull in the wet,i have had the wheels lock up under braking at 20mph and the rear slide out on roundabouts,very scary.I also find that they tramline quite badly.The sidewall is soft and i think that these tyres are basicaly budget without a budget price.

Given 47% (breakdown) while driving a Mazda RX8 (225-45-18-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 300 spirited miles
I put this cooper tyres on my mazda and I drove 300 miles and I return the tyres afterwards.
I used to have bridgestone potenza 040 before.
If you change directions after 80mph just feels loose and input on the steering feels like you are going to spin.
The side walls is mega soft and rolls a lot.
The ESP was acting every roundabout at 40 miles p/h with this tyres. I don't recomend.
