Tires SUMITOMO or GT Radial

SUMITOMO Tires

I swear by Sumitomo Ice Edge tires. I've had three sets now on three different vehicles and other than a couple of nights when there was freezing rain, I've never had issues with them

Pros: no issues

Pros: really grips, comfortable
Cons: slows cornering

SUMITOMO Tires

I like them, they do great in the gravel, rain and snow but are a summer tire so they dont suck ass most of the time like most All Seasons (aka no seasons). Im on my second set, and will definitely get them again when needed.

Pros: great in gravel, rain, snow
Cons: summer tire
Vehicle: Honda Fit

GT Radial Tires

I found GT Radial Champiro SX2 was pretty decent for around the same price as Kendas with similar performance and similar but not as much longevity.

Pros: similar performance, decent price
Cons: less longevity

SUMITOMO Tires

I'm very happy with my [Sumitomo HTR Z III](https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Sumitomo&tireModel=HTR+Z+III), for an affordable high performance tire. It's not going to last 60k miles, but it was a lot of fun slaying the Tail of the Dragon.

Pros: affordable high performance tire
Cons: not going to last

I daily drive with the Sumitomos they are alright in the dry but I do find they aren't as good in the wet. They do feel pretty predictable when driving hard and the tire wear isn't too bad.

Pros: predictable when driving hard
Cons: not good in wet

I almost totalled my RX-8 when my HTRZIII's were not even that bad. Don't get me wrong, they're okay for the price (actually a great drifting tire), but I can't but help think you get what you pay for in terms of how quickly they wear, and especially how bad traction is when they get near the end.

Pros: okay for the price
Cons: wore quickly, bad traction
Vehicle: Mazda

I've had the sumitomos before. they were ok, quieter but not very grippy. They looked awesome though. They also sucked when it was cold ( turned into bricks and thumped until they warmed up )

Pros: quieter, looked awesome
Cons: not very grippy, bad cold
