Are these any good?

What do you guys think about the Sumitomo HTR200s? These would be for an 86 W126 with stock wheels and tire size (205/65-15). I won't be driving in any snow, so I don't want/need a compromise tire. They are inexpensive at $44 each and they have very high marks from the survey on tirerack. Anyone?

Thumbs up

Sumitomo HTR200

So far so good. I just installed these in size 205/70 HR14 for my 82 380SL. Only used for several weeks. They give very nice traction, tracking, and handling for touring driving here in Florida. No experience yet with heavy rain conditions. I saw the same survey and decided to give them a try. For the money it would be hard to go wrong.

Best of luck
JRJ
