Shockingly fantastic in winter slop. I was expecting them to be bad compared to my Sumitomos. Nope. Even better in slop. 100% recommended. Great in the dry with very low noise and super highway tracking. Finally found the grail of cheap and awesome.
Sumitomo is a fantastic tire. I run their summer tires all year around ( In Texas, heavy sedan ) very stable at 85 mph+, quiet and stay planted.
Sumitomo tires wildly out perform their price tag. Have had them on a bunch of cars over the years and have never been unhappy about it.
I personally have sumitomo and I really like them. Good traction. Good for regular road driving or mountain driving and all weather. A little bit pricier, but I feel the quality is worth it.
Sumitomo wt200, vozio kroz 4 države po autoputu po snegu bez problema, ništa proklizavanje, ništa šlajfovanje. Jedino zanosi malo po parkingu gde nije ništa čišćeno i pretvorilo se u bljuzgavicu.
Previously, Sumitomo P03 that I got rid of at 35k because LOUD. Otherwise durable and great in snow. A little unsettled at speed.
Sumitomo and Falken are grippy and good but get loud as hell after a while.
They seem to grip decent once warmed up, but they are a bit on the loud side.
This Tire Brand Has The Lowest Customer Satisfaction Rating, according to Consumer Reports
In size 225/40 (r18), their thread width is comparable to other makers ~205. Well, does it matter? Yes, in the sense that when you install them onto an 8.5 wide rim, you'll notice that you're stretching the fit, and the sweating starts. Installing a tire alone with a basic tire machine is no longer possible.
