Set of 2 Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring 245/45R18 100V XL Tires Fits: 2016-23 Chevrolet Malibu LT, 2009-14 Acura TL SH-AWD

I purchased a Chevy Malibu with Firestone FR710 OEM tires, and although they might have an acceptable reputation, I hated them in terms of looks and the amount of wear they were showing after only 1.5 years (for me, about 7K) they would slip in the rain and of course, the Malibu would throw a "low traction" message. This doesn't happen with the Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring or with my other Cooper CS5 Grand Touring tires that are also on another Malibu. The CS5 tires have great road "bite" and will stop on a dime. Most importantly, they last. My CS5 Grand Tourings are almost 5 years old and are under regular use...they literally look almost new, and I can't remember the last time they needed air added to them. I fully expect my Ultra Tourings to provide the same amount of service, with the condition that my tires are rotated, properly inflated and inspected for damage, balanced, and aligned when necessary. Sometimes, when we think our shocks, struts, etc. are the issue causing the bad ride, it might just be the tires. These are trustworthy, and if you're looking for durable tires that look cool and will provide a nice ride upgrade, go for these!
