Dave, they have their unique characteristics because they are not a good wet weather tyre..................bloody easy answer.

I was out in the NGY lands (working) in 09 and the CDA in our community had Coopers on his Nissan. Reckoned they were the biggest heap of garbage he'd ever used, and he had been out there for years. He is in his early seventies so he's been around.

Well it was most valuable for my query. No Coopers for me. I hardly ever hang around the 'burbs, and I get around on any surfaces in any conditions. Problem solved.
As for the photo comp, I get bamboozled by volume. There are just too many. I'll wait until there's a really good prize LOL.
Good luck everyone.

To have any sort of prize for the comp you must have a sponsor, don't think there will to many coming forward after the way this thread has gone.............
