New CS3 Touring Tire Expands the Cooper Portfolio with Innovative Mid-Range Option

Cooper is expanding its family of touring tires with a new addition this summer—the CS3 Touring. Available now at dealers nationwide, the CS3 Touring is an exceptional mid-range tire featuring Cooper’s new StabilEdge technology, all-season performance, increased fuel-efficiency and premium features–without the premium price–making it ideal for life’s everyday road trips.

Patent-pending StabilEdgetechnology is Cooper’s latest innovation for additional dry handling stability, crisper steering response and improved overall ride comfort. Boasting a newly developed five-rib tread pattern, the CS3 Touring delivers improved wet and light snow traction, a smooth, quiet ride, and even-wearing, long-lasting tread life. Additionally, the CS3 Touring ranks as one of the lightest tires in its class, with an average weight reduction of two pounds which leads to a six per cent improvement in rolling resistance (compared to typical tire construction), delivering increased fuel efficiency.

“Cooper is committed to connecting consumers to life’s road trips,” said Scott Jamieson, Cooper Tire’s director of product management. “The CS3 Touring meets the needs of families by creating a safe, reliable, fuel-efficient and affordable tire option while not compromising on features that deliver true performance benefits.”

The CS3 Touring is available in T, H and V speed ratings, and sizes designed for highway and urban driving in today’s modern sedans and crossover vehicles.

The CS3 Touring replaces the Lifeliner GLS mid-range product. The launch of the CS3 in combination to the current premium CS4 Touring tire offers a wide breath of sizes and feature options, giving appropriate choices for each consumer.
