💡 Is the Cooper TractionCommand 215/65R16 a Good Tire?
The Cooper TractionCommand 215/65R16 is an all-season passenger tire designed for mid-size family sedans and compact crossovers. It offers adequate dry performance and moderate wet traction thanks to its symmetrical tread design and all-season compound. Ride comfort is reasonable with acceptable road noise levels, though tread life falls below category leaders without a mileage warranty. Rated 3.5/5 by TirePath editors, it provides basic all-season capability but lacks the advanced technologies found in premium touring tires. Currently priced from $145.99, it is available through major online tire retailers.

The Cooper TractionCommand 215/65R16 is an all-season tire designed for sedan, coupe, crossover, and SUV drivers who prioritize year-round traction and weather versatility in everyday driving. Its asymmetric tread design and all-season compound focus on maintaining consistent performance across dry, wet, and light snow conditions.
The TractionCommand features an asymmetric tread pattern with outboard sweeping grooves that widen over time to enhance water and slush evacuation, while the inboard section maximizes rubber-to-road contact for improved steering response. Four circumferential grooves and large lateral notches work together to evacuate water from the contact patch, and Cooper's Widening Sipe technology helps maintain traction as the tire wears. Notably, this tire meets severe snow service requirements and carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, qualifying it as a true all-weather tire. With only three driver evaluations available, performance feedback remains limited.
Compared to performance-oriented tires, it emphasizes comfort, stability, and long-term usability across varied weather conditions. Overall, it's a solid choice for sedans, crossovers, and SUVs used primarily for daily driving in regions with diverse weather patterns including light snow.
