ive been looking at buying new wheels and tires. there is an ebayer that regularly sells a wheel/tire combo that i like for a good price. the tires that come with the combo are Sumitomo
HTRs. i looked them up on tirerack.com and they are considerably cheaper than all others listed. has anyone ever heard or used this brand? are they junk? thanks.

I put a set on my Callaway. They are less noisey than my old GSC's. They also grip very well. I was torn betwen these and the Kuhmo's. But so far I really like them. I have about 4,000 miles on them. Very good tire for the price.
 
I may have just bought a set from the same dealer.(Florida?) If so they look pretty good and the price was very reasonable. Will let you know of performance when she's back on the road

If your looking for inexpensive tires but good quality the the Kumho's 712's have better tread wear and are W speed rated. Overall rating is even better.
