That's cool! I had coopers on my s2000 and they were great and durable, but pricey

Restored antique cars for some years, and Cooper Tires were basic to the hobby as they made many specialty sizes and tread types proper for the cars you were restoring. Have a Model A sitting in a museum here in Tallahassee Fl restored in 1965 and those Cooper white wall tires are still on it holding air just fine---so Cooper was a good choice, I believe!
