(sorta ot) cooper cobras?

[Scirocco-Al" <scirocco-Al@insight.rr.com (Scirocco-Al)]

They were on my Volvo turbo wheels when I bought them.  I thoought they were
pretty much junk.  I replaced them with a set of Yokohama Avis H4's and am
much happier.  The yoko's were only $52 ea from the tire rack too.

I'm not a fan of mine either - they've got full tread but they don't handle
very good.  I never noticed the ride quality and noise, though - this might
be because of my louder exhaust and stiffer suspension.

i have a new set on 15" enkei rims that i just put on stripe, and i'm not
happy with the ride. i had them rebalanced, rotated, and had the rims
checked (for bends etc.) but still don't like the ride. i love the way my
other rocco feels on 15's with yokohama's, so i'm guessing the cobras are
just crappy tires. any similar experiences, suggestions, etc..? tia
