The Cobra Radial G/T is Cooper's Performance All-Season tire developed to combine responsive handling and comfortable operation with all-season capabilities for the drivers of muscle cars, kit cars, light trucks and street rods looking for white-lettered performance tires. Blackwall and white-letter versions of the Cobra Radial G/T feature a stylized, Cobra Design Sidewall on the reverse side, allowing drivers to choose between the traditional, block-letter styling or the aggressive cobra design. The Cobra Radial G/T is designed to provide a smooth, quiet ride and year-round traction in dry, wet and wintry conditions, even in light snow.

The Cobra Radial G/T features classic looks and modern performance. Utilizing an optimized, all-season compound, the tread pattern is designed with a specific focus on void ratio to maximize rubber-to-road contact for handling performance. The notched, continuous center rib provides solid on-center feel, and the tread element shape focuses on resisting uneven wear while delivering confident traction. Wide, circumferential grooves and open shoulder slots efficiently evacuate water from the footprint to resist hydroplaning, and the tire's independent tread blocks create multiple biting edges to improve all-season traction and provide year-round capability.

Internal construction of the Cobra Radial G/T consists of two low-stretch polyester casing plies to balance handling response with ride comfort, and two high-strength steel belts support the tread for stability.

Customers Say

Drivers consistently rate the Cooper Cobra Radial G/T as a top choice for classic vehicles, with standout scores in comfort (8-10) for its smooth, quiet ride that enhances the vintage driving experience. Dry traction earns near-perfect praise (9-10), delivering confident grip and responsive handling that owners say revitalizes their car’s performance. Wet traction scores (7-10) reflect solid capability, though some note limited use in rain aligns with typical classic-tire habits. Treadwear receives positive feedback, with many highlighting satisfactory longevity for occasional use, though tread aging-not wear-often determines replacement timing. Owners frequently emphasize satisfaction with its period-correct style and modern performance balance.

...These Coopers are a step up in that department and are great all around.

I've run BFG Radial TAs forever, but they lacked performance in the wet. These Coopers are a step up in that department and are great all around.

...did super on dry roads handles well etc...

1/2 t. chevrolet truck loaded for handyman jobs.... fairly heavy, lots of combination driving, did super on dry roads handles well etc , will hydroplane some in heavy rain, light rains ok, not even made for snowy climates, looks really nice on any show trucks etc, smooth riding and quiet will not disappoint
my only disappointment was only 20,000 miles max on my loaded truck, probably a softer compound than my previous B F 's which went around 30k , but was a bit more costly..... can go too wrong with either set

...These Coopers have a higher speed rating as well as a higher tread life vs. the T/A Radials.

Great alternative to the BFG Radial T/A at a much cheaper price. These Coopers have a higher speed rating as well as a higher tread life vs. the T/A Radials.

...Treadwear was good as long as you rotate the tires accordingly and your alignment is good...

At 45K miles on the tires now, overall I can say these tires have treated me well. Living in North Texas the weather changes constantly and these tires handled the changes well. However, I did get some slippage during wet conditions but that's because the back end of my Dakota is light but when I did carry a load the tires held up during the wet conditions. The tires are fairly quiet on the HWY and pretty comfortable and smooth on both HWY & City driving. Treadwear was good as long as you rotate the tires accordingly and your alignment is good. Stopping was decent as well. So for the money, IMO, I think it was a good purchase for my needs. I would consider buying these tires again.
