[DML] Re: TIRE ALERT!!!

[Shannon Yocom <ssdelorean@xxxxxxxxx>]

I know of at least 10 users of Cooper Cobra GT tires that have had 0 problems with them.

As far as the other brands under Cooper, I have no idea.

  TIRE ALERT!!!

I found a series of web pages reporting issues with sibling tire brands under the Cooper Rubber & Tire Company umbrella: Avon Tyres, Cooper Tires, Dean Tires, and Mastercraft Tires. All have different tread patterns and are therefore not the same tires, but may be manufactured at a common location. Unfortunately these are the only brands that I could find with matching tire sets for the DeLorean's 195/60R14 & 235/60R15

Not very glowing reports:

I don't know if these quality issues have been resolved, but perhaps someone on this mailing list can let us know if the Cooper brands are to be avoided or if they are safe for us to use now.

Thank you,
