    Cooper Tire & Rubber Company makes tires for cars and trucks, and they specialize in the design, production, marketing, and sales of replacement tires.

    To that end, Cooper has created a set of all-season tires that can provide you with year-round traction so that you can remain on the road, even in challenging weather situations. The Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring is an all-season tire that suits coupes, sedans, minivans, CUVs, and SUVs. These tires provide responsive handling, cornering, and a smooth ride.

    That being said, is this the right tire for your ride and budget? To learn more, let's take a look at the Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring Tire review.

    Features and Benefits

    Most drivers prefer tires that do not need to be changed every season. Furthermore, if you are searching for a tire that may provide comfort, control, and a quiet ride in addition to all-season traction, the CS5 Ultra Touring tire might be an option. Let's look over the features and advantages of the CS5 Ultra Touring tires.

    • Enhanced all-season traction: The tread contains a fully enhanced silica compound, which enables the tire to grip the road in dry, rainy, and cold conditions. This enhances all–season traction. Further, 3D Micro-Gauges in the tread design boost road traction.
    • Reduced risk of hydroplaning: The tread pattern's circumferential grooves drain water from beneath the footprint and prevent hydroplaning. This boosts wet traction.
    • Steering responsiveness: Stabiledge Technology incorporates bumpers into the tread pattern to keep the grooves open and hence stabilize the tread components. This increases the tire's stability and handling while also improving all-season traction. 3D micro-gauges in the tread design boost road traction, stabilize the tread area, and enhance handling. Because the tire responds well to the driver's commands, they may confidently steer under changing road conditions.
    • Longer lasting tread: A silica-rich read design lowers the rate of tread wear and ensures even wear over the tread area. Because erratic wear is avoided, the tire can be used for a longer amount of time.
    • Comfortable drive: The interior construction, which includes R-Tech sidewalls, longer bead fillers, and performance compounding, helps to absorb road vibrations, resulting in a more comfortable driving experience.

    Pros and Cons

    Have you finally found the ideal all-season tire? Let’s consider the pros and cons of these tires before making a decision.

    • All-season tread pattern to boost the dry, wet, and light winter weather traction.
    • Backed by a 70,000-mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty for sizes V and H, there is, and for sizes W, there is a 50,000-mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty.
    • Silica enhanced tire compound offers a longer tread life.
    • To lessen the possibility of hydroplaning, circumferential grooves drain water and slush from the tread.
    • Stabiledge technology to boost steering responsiveness.
    • 3D micro-gauge siping enhances wet traction.
    • R-tech sidewalls offer a comfortable driving experience.
    • Quiet drive.

    Even with all of these pros and cons, the Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring tire might be enhanced in a few areas, such as:

    • Not designed for harsh winter conditions.
    • Not designed for light trucks.
    • Cannot be taken off-road.

    SimpleTire’s view on Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring tires

    With features such as a silica improved tire compound, circumferential grooves, Stabiledge technology, 3D micro-gauge siping, and R-tech sidewalks, Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring tires excel at boosting grip and providing strong performance year after year. Consider the Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring tires if you need a durable all-season tire that provides greater grip, dependable handling, steering responsiveness, a longer tread life, and a quiet ride.

    In comparison to the Hankook Kinergy ST (H735) and the Falken Sincera SN250 A/S, the Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring offers greater year-round traction, handling, and tread life.

    Although the Hankook Kinergy ST (H735) has better traction, the Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring has superior handling and longevity for a higher score SimpleScore. The Falken Sincera SN250 A/S offers a superior traction and mileage warranty, but the Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring has a better tread life and handling.

    Although the Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring tire is more expensive than the tires indicated above, it has a higher SimpleScore due to its superior handling and tread life.

    I am extremely satisfied with my very first use of simple Tire. Description and sizing were simple and graphics were good. Most importantly, the price points are ultra competitive and the delivery process to my installer were flawless from order to delivery. I will only use Simple Tire.

    Good tires if you don't have to use them in the snow. Not a good all season tire. The previous worn out Kenda's were better in the snow.

    Cooper P 235/55R19 105H Ultra Touring. I have over 30 years experience driving in snowy winter conditions and I've only ever needed all season tires with an AWD car. I bought these all season tires expecting them to do me at least 3 winters as they were supposed to have a 70K mile warranty. This winter, my car was slipping badly in the snow and I almost ended up in a ditch and so I had my car's AWD system checked by the mechanic not expecting any issues with the tires. I was shocked to find out that my tires were at the end of their life after only 16,500 miles. I did not buy these tires at SimpleTire but since I had such an awful experience with these tires, I feel that it is important that people know how bad they are.
