Now that Victoria has had it's first (and hopefully last) dump of snow, I have been able to run these Zeon's in the white stuff. Compared to the Scorpions, these Cooper's are like having Formula 1 Option tires on....for those that don't know, they are the super sticky (soft) tires! The grip is awesome, especially in 4WD High with the combination of traction control. Of course, when you break through the snow into the ice, no non-studded tire is going to lose traction.
Only have about 20 kms of experience in the snow on these tires, but so far, they are proving to be great. My tranist to work this morning was fun...to say the least!

hey nice lookin truck man. if you dont mind me askin, what did you end up paying for these after everything was said and done? like shipping/duty etc. i am thinking about doing the same, buying from across the border. i know tires down there are cheaper, but i have no idea how much i could actually save. i have an 08 lariat, MIGHT keep the stock 20's but might go with a after market, but definitely it is time for new rubber. and i hear nothing but good things from the zeons. i know this is an old post i am replying to, but how have your zeons been for you this year since you got them?

Hey Bilinvic, How do you like those Zeon tires? I know this an old thread but after looking around these seem to be a great all around tire. I really way nitto trail grappler tires but I'm hearing they suck in the snow. Good excuse for me to get two sets of wheels. Your truck looks good!
