sumitomo is significantly better than any no name Chinese tire
I had sumitomo ASPO3 on my Honda Accord and they were honestly really good tires The asymmetrical tread pattern did very well in the wet and light to moderate snow, I would purchase them again.
Falken’s parent company sumitomo makes the encounter AT with similar performance for much cheaper, it’s what I’m running currently and they’re great
My car came with Sumitomo HTR A/S P03 with about 19k on them. I bought it after a blizzard and was pleasantly surprised at how capable the tires are. We've subsequently had torrential rain and they grip great in the wet too.
The downside is that they're quite noisy.
Kleber, mi ih imamo i samo preporuka.
Kleber Quadraxer 3, just bought them and they're fantastic. I just changed Vredestein Quatracs after more than 60k driven and Klebers are even better, and definitely more comfortable and quiet. Due to climate changes and dynamic weather changes, in short period of time I tested them on rain, snow, below zero temperatures, even +9° degrees. They're good both in the city and on the motorway.
I bought now Kleber Quadraxer 3 all season tyre's and those are so comfortable and silent that I feel like I would change a car.
I went from Sumitomo HTR Z2 tires to Michelin Pilot Super Sport and was left very disappointed in the Michelins. Initial turn in suffered (slight delay from steering input to vehicle changing direction). The Michelins are like sticky gummy bears, the Sumitomos had much stiffer side walls and that made driving far more enjoyable even though they were less sticky.
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.
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 )
