Cooper Cobra GT vs Hankook Ventus (H101)

I doubt you are going to be able to detect any performance difference between these two tires. The wear spec favors the Hankook being stickier, but again, I doubt a slalom course or drag strip would show much difference. Both are good brands. I've had better luck with Hankook in other applications but have Coopers on my car now. With your description of use I would go with the one that is easier to get installed or cheaper or whatever floats your boat one way or the other. The car won't be able to tell the difference.
