Wie gebruik Cooper STT?

Post by Kaspaas »

Ek weet hierdie is 'n onderwerp wat al meer as 'n paar keer herkou is.

Maar ek begin nou al hoe meer in die rigting gaan van nuwe bande koop.
Nou op 33's is die pryse nie so naby aan mekaar tussen fabrikate nie, wonder hoekom? :think:

Kort van die lank is dat sover is die Coopers die goedkoopste, met byna R1100 per band as die wat tweede goedkoopste is.
Eks nie 'n voorstaander om goedere(bande) buite my tuis area te koop nie, vir my is die herverkoop diens belangrik.
Vir my klink R2600 vir 'n 33 MT nie so vrot nie??

Daar was so tyd terug 'n topic rondom die STT wat nie so lank hou nie, ens.

Wie gebruik die STT (of het al), en wat is julle opinie?

Dis persoonlike voorkeur. Ek like Coopers niks, het al met hulle gery, so ek suig nie my judgement uit my duim nie.. :silent:

Ek het tans 'n stel Cooper STT 31's op myne. Het nie 'n probleem met die bande nie, dis my eerste stel en na 7k lyk hul nog goed.

Op grond, teer en modder is daar niks fout met Coopers nie, maar as jy oor klippe gaan ry gaan jy stukkies van die knoppe verloor.

As ek weer nuwe bande moet koop sal ek eerder na 'n 32" A/T kyk.

Ek het verlede week in Dikhololo rondgery en daai fyn klip sand van hulle het die knoppe se kante begin rond maak.

die cooper se "compund is harder" sal km gee, maar is effe k@kkerag met traction, padgeraas en soms sal hy "chip" blokke verloor
hy deteriorate ook vinnig en word erg hard, die compound, raak somme lekke hard dan sing hy soos die akkapella koor
JA ek het hulle al gery en ook op my kompetisie 4x4 gehad (sponsor toe hulle by dunlop was jare terug) ie shitty tire

die posetief is hy sit op 'n rim soos niks anders nie

persoonlik like ek die maxxis bande erg op die oomblik, maar da is defenitie mooi tires daar buite

Hou verby, daai "Pirate Dunlops" werk nie goed nie, klippe breek sommer stukke uit hulle, het balanseer probleme ook. Dit is n goedkoop band wat deur Dunlop versprei word.
Hulle het die hele reeks ontrek agv te veel probleme, maar ek sien hulle is weer terug

Het ook Cooper ST eers op my voertuig gehad, op die teerpad raas hy maar, nie sleg op die klippe nie! Daar was al baie besprekings oor bande, persoonlik sal ek nie weer Coopers gebruik nie. Doen maar eers jou huiswerk, bande koop ruk maar n man se sak. Ek weet die Namibiers verkies maar modder- bande, veral in die sanduine!

Used to have STT on, and never had issues at all, never even lost the knobbies. They were 31's. As for driving in the rain, I always drive slower in any case (except where there is no traffic), even with the platkar, I would say the compund is more in the middle, not too hard and not too soft. Reason for moving to Maxxis now was purely on price and I'm yet to see how they handle.

Personally I think the STT is a good tyre, enjoy them. As for the road noise I loved it too, at times keeping the radio off, but I must admit the Maxxis run quieter.

Ek het Cooper STT 31'' op Bosfebok...

- Pad geraas - en raak erger met tyd..
- Zero traction op 'n nat pad (tot die n-de mag vergroot omdat 'n SFA mos sulke potent brieke het :thumbdown: )
- Fyn klippies kou die knobbies
- Ek kan nou na 3 jaar sien hoe die compound verhard
- Baie lekker traction offroad (ek was nog nie in modder nie) maar op sand en klip het ek nog nie problem met traksie gehad nie...net dat die knobbies les op se

Ek het hulle so paar jaar terug opgesit omdat ek hulle teen n baie goeie prys gekry het...

Ek het Cooper STT op ons Suzuki, vir my lyk die side walls maar baie sag, ons het die naweek bietjie oor klippe en so aan gaan ry, aan die kant van die band is daar wit wat deurkom soos dit teen klippe geskuur het, wat ek nog nie op die BF's gesien gebeur het nie. Maar net my opinie

Moet sê dat ek nie balansering probleme of traksie probleme met die ST's gehad nie, nie eers in modder nie. En ry ook nie te sleg op nat pad nie, weet nie oor die STT's nie, maar het al gehoor van swak hantering op nat teerpad.

Hallo almal
Snaaks dat hierdie onderwerp opkom.
Ek het nou onlangs n stel 265/75/16 S/T's op my 2.7 ifs gesit. Die balanseering was baie goed en min gewig was nodig. Een van die bande moes egter op die rim gedraai word om die gewig te verminder.
Die padgeraas is minder as wat ek verwag het en die hanteering is goed, slefs in die nat.
Ek het nou maar eers omtrent 1000 km gedoen maar baie gelukkig sofêr.

Die enigste naadeel is dat ek heelwat krag verloor het teenoor die standaart grote band.
