Sumitiomos Tires?
I have BFG G-Force on their now but want to spend less on tires, AM has sumitomo's for sale they have a higher tread rating but im wondering if they are a good tire? My size is 275/35/18 Front and 285/35/18 Rear.

They are alright tires, nothing like Nittos but they aren't a bad tire at all.. My buddy has them.. Ride Quality is alright but not the greatest also

I like mine as they are decent for everyday driving but id rather have my BFGs back. Like you said they are expensive. Just dont try and drag race with the sumis, they are horrible.

how do they suck for dd?
Just go with the sumi's, you dont need the more expensive ones, unless you are doing something extreme with your car

hankook are good too... but like i said, you will get good tread life out of the sumis... so if you're trying to save money, go with them

ive had sumitomos on my car for about 6 months.. they dont make any road noise and they ride fine... the tread is still good, and i've done quite a bit of burnouts and went to the track a few times.. they are good tires so if u want cheap (like i did) go with the sumitomos
