After the stocks went out at 35k miles they were replaced by Falkens.
30+k miles later 2 Falkens went bad so had to purchase 2 new tires. Cooper S3's. In hindsight I prolly should've just 4 bought new tires at that point.
10k miles later need to replace the 2 remaining Falkens....but DT no longer carries Cooper S3's.
The Cooper S3's are like 24lbs and the available remaining Coopers are like 26-27 lbs. wanting to have more equal weight distribution I opted for the RT43's.
Both cool tires. Quite surprised by the level of quality in the RT43's. Yes placed in rear. Coopers only have 10k miles on them.
