Cooper Tires vs TBC Brands

Cooper Tires and TBC Brands both offer a variety of tires at prices ranging from $50 to $250 and $50 to $200, respectively. The tire options available include Passenger, Performance, SUV/Truck, and Winter tires, all with UTQG ratings ranging from 400-700 and 400-600, respectively. The UTQG rating is a standardized system used to measure and compare the treadwear, traction, and temperature resistance of tires. Developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), this rating system provides consumers with valuable information about the expected lifespan of a tire based on its wear compared to a control tire. A higher treadwear rating indicates a longer expected lifespan for the tire.
