The Cooper Zeon CS8 promises drivers exceptional ‘A’ grade wet grip, fuel efficiency and excellent handling characteristics. Featuring the official World RX logo on the sidewall, the CS8 will allow a top speed of 300km/h. Five hundred of the 215/40R17 XL 87Y high-performance passenger car tires will be made in a one-off production run.

“Our limited edition Cooper Zeon CS8 tire is for the World Rallycross fans, many of whom travel all across Europe and beyond year-on-year to watch what is a truly thrilling sport,” said Sarah McRoberts, PR and events manager for Cooper Tire Europe. “They will now have the opportunity to further show their passion for RX by fitting a World RX-branded tire to their car.”
