    Default Sumitomo Tyres

    Im looking at a set of 19's that come with Brand New Sumitomo HTR Z II's 245/35ZR19.

    Just wondering if these are any good, as I've never heard of them..

    Cheers,
    Calem

    G'Day mate, I haven't used the ZII's but i have the HTR Z III 225/30ZR20 on mine and can't recommend them enough,maybe a little too soft but these are my second set of Sumi's and they do get a thrashing especially on the goatrack of a Bruce Highway.

    Sumitomo's have been around for years, they won a couple of the early Wheels Tyre tests then just seemed to drop out of sight.
    I had HTR Z 11 or similar in 16's on my VL years ago and they were great but soft and the dirt roads I used to go on really ripped them apart
