Cooper Zeon RS3-S vs. Nitto 555's for a spring/summer DD
I'm getting some 17 inch TTM's for my T/A and I'm trying to decide between these two tire's. The car gets driven rain or shine from just after all of the snow is gone till just before it comes back, and also gets taken to the drag strip 2-3 times a year just for fun. I'd be leaning more toward the Coopers so I could rotate them right to left but they'll also cost me $155 more. I'd also be interested in the M/T Street Comps but I can't find a good price in them in a wheel tire package.

Thanks but they don't have the wheels I want and it looks like the get there great pricing from really narrow off brand tires on there wheels. Delinte 225/40/18's not cool.

We've been having really good success with both the RS3-S and RS3-A. They both have a very smooth ride plus excellent traction in both wet and dry. Plus, you can rotate side to side to maximize life. As far as the M/T street comp, Cooper actually makes those and they are almost identical to the RS3-S. Bang for the buck, the RS3-S is the way to go for a summer tire.

We try to help out the forum members when we can. We don't have a specific discount, we do them on an order by order basis. Honestly, a lot of times our prices are so low that we really don't have any wiggle room on them.

Those RS3-A look like good all around tires, I like the higher tread life rating over the -S plus they are a couple lbs lighter. I may have to pick some up in the spring for my 18s. There aren't a lot of options out there for staggered sizes that you can still at least rotate side to side.
