Cooper Tires: Series
built 220 days ago
Through several off-season tests, the new Cooper Atlantic racing slicks and rain tires have consistently demonstrated the ability to deliver the mail quickly and reliably, no matter what the conditions. Over the course of the first two series-sanctioned open tests – at Florida’s Sebring International Raceway in January and earlier this month at MSR Houston in Texas – competitors logged nearly 20,000 miles of track time on the new Cooper tires. And through the heat, rain and high winds in Sebring to the cold temperatures present at MSR Houston, the Atlantic tires have proven durable and have given the Mazda-Cosworth/Swift cars a high level of performance.

Several Cooper Tire models are facing public scrutiny for their possible role in dozens of fatal automobile accidents. According to reports, Cooper tires may develop shoulder area cracks which can cause tread separation leading to a sudden deflation of the tire. Similar to what caused the Firestone tire scandal, this defect may lead to serious injury or death if an accident ensues. To date, Cooper tires have been linked to 35 fatalities on U.S. highways. The billion-dollar tire maker is facing numerous lawsuits as a result.
