Anyone have them? What do you think of them? Or should I spend the extra $130 for the Coopers?

Sometimes those really cheap tires are not worth it. I had a set of cheapies and they barely lasted 20,000 miles. Also,I had to pull a different perfectly good set off my wife's Honda because she complained the car was hard to stop in the rain. I said "You need to pump the brakes!" Then I drive it in the rain and the wheels would just slide and lock up. They were scary ass tires. I used them as boat dock bumpers. My opinion,buy the coopers.
Bfg sport comp 2 is what I would choose. They are $100 each through discounttiredirect.com, I am not a fan of cooper tires myself. I’ve had them on 3 different cars and always end up with road noise.
Edit the bfg are 109.99, you could get the set plus the lmr wheels for under $1100.

I got the LMR set mounted etc. I've not noticed any deficiencies as of yet, and they are a serious improvement over the dried out and cracked TRX that they replaced. Local shop charges $25 per to mount and balance. Made sense to do as I did, it'll take me decade to put 20,000 miles on em.
PS. I've driven in some heavy rain with them as well and had no planing incidents, although it is easy to spin em on wet pavement, but it seems to me no worse than the previous tires.
The guy that does my state inspections passed my TRX's for several years longer than he probably should have. Plenty of tread depth and cracks to match.
I never heard of Ohtsu before LMR packaged them with the wheels I had been hoping someone would create. I'm happy with them. I drive the car a lot more gently than I used to, but I do push it through the gears. Haven't more than squeaked em a bit.
Those tires are made by the Falken Tire Corp.
