Technical information
Focus: Standard
The largest and best-selling category, and Cooper WM SA2+ belongs to it. No single property is pushed here at the expense of the others — comfort, grip, noise and tread life keep a sensible balance. For most drivers it is the safest bet: the tyre behaves predictably in the dry and in the wet and covers a decent number of kilometres.

What owners say
They are great for the price as they can cover lots of distance with minimal wear. I drove with them on ice, snow, wet and damp roads and even in the +35°C in summer. They are OK in all conditions, but they perform the best in the cold and wet, or on easy snow. Big levels of snow or ice makes them perform average, as they slip like any other tyre. In the dry, you can drive a bit spirited using them but they overheat fast and lose grip.
This tyre is an OK all rounder for the cold months but dont expect ultra performance out of them.
Very good grip, but the car handling and road feedback with these tyres is absolute nightmare! It's very scary turning a corner fast with these tires.
Great winter (standard compound) tyre at reasonable cost. It's very comfortable,soft and stable in the wet. Snow and ice performance average. After these tyres I switched to nordic (soft) compound for extra grip on ice and snow.
First off, note that the WM SA2+ actually refers to two different tyres, produced by two different plants by Cooper. Sizes 13-16" are made in a factory in Serbia, speed rating T (190km/h), while 17" and above with higher speed rating are made in the UK. The two models have different rubber compound and tread design (this can be seen on cooper website) and in my view should deserve different name, this is not a transparent marketing approach by Cooper. Anyhow to the review, my tyres are 16" T-speed rating fitted on a golf GTI. Overall the grip is surprisingly good in both dry and wet the car sticks to the road much better than I expected (haven't tested in snow or sub-zero temperatures). The comfort is pretty good and noise level average. On the bad side of things, the road feedback is really not the best and handling is rather underwhelming. In a spirited entry to hard corner the car nosedives. During the usual spirited drive in and out of the city the suspension feels "wobbly", and the steering feedback is nothing more than passable. Overall I would not buy this tyre again for a hot hatch, but it should be a perfectly fine choice for a small city cars.
Great tires, drove from Netherlands to Italy via Germany and Switzerland........saw rain, wet, dry, snow and ice.
Terrific performance, great price, would buy again.
