Yes they kind of had to because Cooper was killing them especially in the rural markets.

Cooper also offered niche tires (like snow tires) in sizes that other manufacturers did not have, so GY now has a new catalog and manufacturing capability.

My guess however is that Cooper as a separate brand eventually goes away.
