In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Austria (
Semperit) against a tyre from a manufacturer from USA (
Cooper).
Semperit is a brand that belongs to the Continental group. Generally,
Semperit summer tyres are slightly better rated (51%) than
Cooper (35%). The first tyre test of Semperit Speed-Life 2 was done in 2016, compared to 2017 when was the Cooper Zeon CS8 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
Autobild 2019 225/45 R17 test, where both the
Speed-Life 2 and the
Zeon CS8 were tested. See more mutual tests below. When it comes to comparison, eu labels can be also interesting - 75% of Semperit Speed-Life 2 has C wet grip rating, whereas 98% of Cooper Zeon CS8 has A rating.
