I agree with chris. :ugh:


Sumitomo's are cheap piece of shits. My sister had 2 of them go out on her mustang in three weeks. Coincidence? Probably. Useless post? Definitely.

useless post?
then dont bother posting. Not like I knew that sumitomo's suck'd.
hence the post.
:slap:

to all others who do "care"
I picked up a Toyo Poxes FZ4
Guess i'll end up having to pick up another3 of these tires. in the next few weeks.

Most sites I found this tire on give it a rating of 4.3 out of a 5 and about an 8.1 on a 10 scale.

I'd replace the FZ4 ASAP as well. You might be okay til you get back home, but I've read some not so good news with those tires.
