Yeah, daily driving tires, they're fine... You want traction, no..

I have these tires, just got them a few months back. They seem good, much better then my previous ones which were extremely bald, but as far as traction and handling I couldnt tell you because its been too wet around here to have any fun

junk, they have a wear rating of like 120 or something crazy. They will wear out in no time!

well I ahve 245 40 nexens - Y rated, 420 AAA tread wear.. they are better than stock, but they dont heat up and get sticky like stock either, A higher treadwear will generally get less traction, as to where softer rubber bites more - but also goes up in smoke... Id like to be faster - but this is a DD for me - and I like my tires to last as long as possible so I can buy more mods!

sumitomos are great daily drivers. but they suckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk if you want traction. espesially at low speeds or a dead stop.
