Those Sumitomo HTR+ tires

They were really cheap, and I thought I would give them a try.
If they are as good or bad as their price suggest, I can always throw them away. (yup, it's only 90 bucks each)

Well, to my surprise, they are really good. They are better than stock mxm4s without question. They corner better, brake better, have better wet traction and guess what....they are more comfy!

I do NOT know if they are as good as the pilot sports, the SP9000 or the S-03. They are well worth the money, even if I have to pay double the $$.

The only thing I don't know is how they wear and how they fare on snow. I will check back in after 10k-20k miles.

Thumbs up

Sometimes you really can't judge something just because it's cheap. Sumitomo has been around for a while and they do make good tires. As for the HTR+, it's rated as 360 AA A, so it should last you a while. I have a set myself also.
