Sumitomo Tires?

[krz2fer]

I am checking out 205/40/16 tires for my civic and at tirerack.com.. I found this brand, along with others like Dunlop and stuff. It says they are great for all year performance, etc etc etc, but it mentions no warrenty or mileage like the Dunlop tires do. I want a good price for a solid tire that wont wear off in 2 years.

Any thoughts? My Nittos are sucking ass and beginning to wear despite rotations.

Ive never really heard of Sumitumo tires, other then in the Cash Money Millianaires song..:o

Sumitumo tires are good all-season performance tires. i have never heard anything bad about them. i don't know what kind of treadlife they have though.

Generally speaking the better the treadlife the worse the grip of the tires. There's a reason HP tires don't last long.....

Just pointing it out, you're probably already well aware of it. :)

I've heard good things about Sumitomo, nothing bad. I haven't heard a lot about them, though.
