All Cooper winter tires have M+ S rating as well as the severe snow performance rating. We carry the full line of Cooper winter tires, including the Cooper Weather-Master tires, and the Cooper Discoverer M+S tires, to provide our customers the confidence they need in winter driving.
Why Do I Need Winter Tires?
Cooper winter tires are a smart choice if you live in the northern United States or Canada, and you do a lot of driving when the temperatures are regularly below 40 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees Celsius). Although all-season tires provide good winter traction, the tread rubber in all-season tires is designed to perform and wear well in a broad range of temperatures. A dedicated winter tire offers superior performance in snow, ice, and freezing temperatures because the tread rubber composition is solely focused on cold weather tire performance. The unique tread compounds allow Cooper winter tires to stay more flexible at lower temperatures providing excellent traction, and less wear on the tire on cold roads. Winter tire tread designs also aid in providing traction and grip when stopping and accelerating. Winter tires provide the safety and security you need when driving in difficult winter conditions that cannot be achieved with all-season tires.
Cooper Winter Tires
For grip on snow and ice the Cooper Weather-Master tires and the Cooper Discoverer M+S tires both have a very high density of sipes in the tread. These small grooves in the tread blocks provide the biting edges needed for snow traction and grip on ice. All Cooper winter tires also have deep circumferential grooves which help channel water and slush out from under the tread to prevent hydroplaning.
Cooper Weather-Master Winter Tires
The Cooper Weather-Master tires are excellent tires for snow and ice and are available in a broad range of sizes, for cars, crossovers, SUVs and light trucks. The Cooper Weather-Master S/T2 is a premium, studdable winter tire, with sizes to fit a wide range of passenger cars. The tread design balances high winter traction with a smooth, quite ride. D-Squared sipe technology enhances winter performance, while continuing to provide excellent wet traction. Constructed with tri-polymer blend tread compound, formulated for excellent traction while still providing wet and dry performance. If you drive a lot of miles winter miles, and typically rotate your winter tires mid-season, the Weather-Master S/T2 is easily rotated to all positions on the vehicle.
The Cooper Weather-Master WSC is Cooper’s superior, studdable, directional tread pattern tire for improved acceleration on snow and ice, good water evacuation, and comes in sizes for passenger cars and SUVs. The patterned circumferential Snow Groove technology enhances snow-on-snow traction capabilities. The high silica, flexible tread compounds add superior traction in ice, slush and the most extreme wet and cold conditions. Micro gauge sipes provide stable tread elements and an increased number of biting edges during braking. Keep in mind the directional pattern means you can only rotate the Weather-Master WSC tires front to back, on the same side of the vehicle.
