Thoughts on Sumitomo tires?
I've heard mostly good things about them, anyone on here have actual experience with these?
Thanks!

Im running a set on my wifes 740il. Theyve been on for about 7000 miles now. They are wearing very nicely (evenly). I push them hard on occasion, and theyre decent on grip. The big 7 is a heavy. They have a pretty hard rubber compound so they wear well, but there are tires better suited for aggressive driving. Overall, I like them. theyre quiet enough to roll on the BMW and great in the rain too.

I havent noticed any adverse effects in the rain.... of course we dont get much rain here, and when it does rain, its hardly a downpour.... So perhaps theres some truth to them being bad in real rainstorms.
Understand no worries nice looking car btw
I've found Michillan and Dunlop to be the best handling in dry weather. I don't drive mine in the rain ever. Can't comment on the rain thing. I try to go with American companies, although I know the tires are made overseas. Last I looked, Cooper was the last American made tire if your interested. Didn't mean to get off track Craby.
