π‘ Is the Cooper TractionCommand 225/55R18 a Good Tire?
The Cooper TractionCommand 225/55R18 is an all-season tire designed for mid-size crossovers and SUVs. It delivers adequate dry performance and decent wet traction through its silica-enhanced compound and optimized tread pattern. Ride comfort is reasonable for daily driving, though road noise becomes noticeable at highway speeds. Tread life is average for its category without an extended mileage warranty. Rated 3.5/5 by TirePath, it provides year-round capability for light snow conditions but falls short of premium tire refinement and longevity. Currently priced from $200.99, it is available through major online tire retailers.

The Cooper TractionCommand 225/55R18 is an all-weather tire, designed for sedan, coupe, crossover, and SUV drivers who prioritize year-round traction and severe weather capability in everyday driving. Its asymmetric tread design and all-season compound focus on delivering consistent performance across varied conditions while meeting industry severe snow service requirements.
The TractionCommand features an asymmetric tread pattern with distinct outboard and inboard sectionsβthe outboard incorporates sweeping grooves that widen over time for enhanced water and slush evacuation, while the inboard section increases 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. The tire carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, certifying its capability in severe snow conditions.
Compared to standard all-season tires, it emphasizes enhanced winter traction and severe weather performance while maintaining year-round usability. Overall, it's a solid choice for crossovers and SUVs used primarily for daily driving in regions with varying weather conditions including snow.

TirePath Editorial Review
"We consider this a solid choice for crossover drivers who need reliable year-round traction through light snow and seasonal changes. The trade-off is limited performance data with only three customer surveys available."
