Default Tire Check

Greetings,

Its about that time to buy new tires. I was wondering if anyone has had any experiance with SUMITOMO HTR35Z 305/35 17s? Keep in mind, I will be doing very light track events and some autocross other than that they will be mainley used for street use. All the reviews I've been reading, say these are a great bang for your buck. Any information or comments is much appreciated.

Thanks
Daniel

Have a set of 225's up front and 315's in the rears. Good tires for street and occasional aggressive drives. Three years w/approximately 5,000 miles on them. Front tires looks practically brand-new and rears (typical 911 style) shows center thread wear.

I believe these tires will easily get high 20's on the clock but I change tires every four years. So will be looking at new sneakers for the 930 probably later this year.

315/35ZR17's are tough fitments. Limited to only a few namebrands now.

Sumitomo is Dunlop's parent company.
