Re: New Cooper CS5 Touring Tyres
Having had the CS5s on for a while now, I can say I'm thoroughly impressed so far.
We had a nice big storm with bucket loads of rain last week, road covered in water. It was the first decent storm in months too, so there would have been a lot of oily crap on the roads. They sliced right through it, not the slightest loss of grip or aquaplaning. I pushed them too.
I just got home from a trip down to Brisbane, and they were awesome cruising on the highway, driving in the city, and driving home in the drizzle this morning.
So all good so far. I'll update as I go

Re: New Cooper CS5 Touring Tyres
I recently did a trip from Adelaide to the Sunshine Coast and back on my CS5s (5000km) They were much quieter than my previous Bridgestones.
I am noticing that the CS5s lose grip momentarily if I take off a bit fast at the lights. I don't recall the Bridgestones doing this.
I haven't had a chance to do much driving in the wet, but the comments from others here are positive.

Re:
I've now travelled over 11,000km in just four months on my CS5s in all weather and road conditions and continue to be extremely impressed. They still look near new and no appreciable sign of wear at all.
I know many have had bad experiences with Coopers but I can't say anything against the CS5. I got 67,000km out of my original fit Dunlop 7000s but I'm expecting much more than that from the Coopers.
Very impressed indeed.

Re:
Hi, I am due for a new set of tyres for my purchased new, Dec. 2012 X Trail, T. I, 57,766 klm's. Current tyre size, new on vehicle is 225 / 55 R 18, Dunlop Sport 7,000 A/s. Were very noisy and getting worse as wearing down.
I am wondering what I should buy to replace them. Cheers, Ironbark.

Re:
My CS5s are now over 20,000km old and the coloured tread wear indicators haven't even started showing yet.
They are wearing incredibly evenly and I've had no problem with them at all. I know a lot of people who have bad things to say about Cooper Tyres but thus far I've been nothing but impressed.
