Default Tire question.....

Are Sumitomo tires an acceptable brand for normal everyday driving?....How about Falken?

I have Sumitomo on my car, and they are great. They wear a little fast for a GT, but then, I may drive them hard, Just a little. I put them on my daughters car and she said " they don't spin?" She cuts a .010 light pretty regulary.

I would go with Sumitomo over Falkens. I never had good experience with Falkens. Thats just me though.

I ordered a set of the sumatomas. Loved em. Check the testimonials and the rating surveys and you'll see they're super highly rated.

I haven't had any experience with either brands, but a friend has sumo's and he likes them except for in the rain.
