Cooper Zeon Ltz?

Does any one have these tires? any feedback, good or bad would be greatly appriciated.

Also would 305/50 r20 fit on my truck? 05 fx4 scab with a 2" leveling kit.

I don't know about the performance niether. There isn't any info. on the cooper web site. I purchased them from discounttire.com in the same size (305/50/20) along with some akuza creation 20-9 6/135 35. I have heard good reviews about cooper tires but nothing about this particular one. The price is in my ball park for my 05 screw FX4 Blk/Blk w/2.5 leveling kit. The wheels are on back order by 10-15 days I'll post pics when they come in and let you know about the performance. I do 80% county road driving in S.E Alabama.

I too tried to find info on the Zeon LTZ's. After checking the Cooper website I e-mailed them for the info. Surprisingly I received a phone call from Cooper Tire and was told that the Zeon LTZ was manufactured and sold exclusively by Discount Tire and that the tire was not being handled by Cooper Tire distributors. I went with the Nitto TG's and am very pleased.

I can't tell you about the LTZ, but I have the Cooper Zeon ZPT on my 99 Cougar in 225/40/18, and I LOVE them. They have been the best tires I've hard, by far. Great traction on dry or wet pavement (not that a 99 Cougar has traction problems ), and very quiet with good treadwear. I haven't had them in the snow, so I don't know about that.

Hope I sorta helped

Just put my Coopers on today and have only driven to work so far. They feel spongy, I do have bump steer though so I'll try and have them re-balanced tomorrow. They came balanced from discount tire, but I do not know if I threw a weight on the way to work or what I'll keep you informed. Check out the pics.

I had the tires force balanced this morning and I also found out that discount tire put 55psi in each tire. The tires feel alot better driving down the road. there is hardly any bump steer (nothing unsual than before tires were changed). There is now 42psi per tire and they ride and handle better.

Wow, I really like the looks of those. I wish they made more than that one size in 18 or I would have bought those.

Thanks, I was amazed when they arrived. I was very worried about how they would look on the truck.
