I run Cooper on my truck and theyre good, but I have no experience with their performance tires.
On the vett I use Firehawk Wide Ovals, they are awesome, quiet, very sticky in the dry, good in the rain, but stay away from even a little standing water

I have a set of the Cooper Cobra GTX that I was very happy with. At the time I bought the Cobra the Zeon was not out. I've used the Cobra in autocross with no complaints. I do like the Zeon but when I switch to my 18's recently the Zeon didn't come in 295/35/18, else I would of got them.

I purchased my 95 vert this past summer-Cooper tires were already installed-do not have the model handy but it seems like it handles well in the rain (light) and dry weather.I also did not notice any loud road noise
