What a mouthfull!! We just replaced the factory installed Goodyear RS-As with the Sumitomos and so far they are great!! got them from tire rack for $70.00 each plus shipping....word of caution thoughON'T let TIRE KINGDOM install & balance them IF you have factory stock rims: THEY DO NOT have the correct weights to fit the rims....what a mess!! had to take the car to my Chrysler dealer to have them re-balanced!!
Very impressed with TIRE RACK though!!
How about some feedback on the Sumitomos????

If you look on the Tire Rack site, they have a pull down menu of certified tire dealers all over the states that they recommend to install their products. Although, Tire Kingdon was the one closest to me according to their site.

If that's the case for you, go back to the site and on that page that tells you which installers you should go to, there's a "review an installer" place that lets you give feedback on the places they recommend.

Thanks for the reply! I picked TK because of price and they were close by to my house too!
That said TK sucks, and employes people that other reputable tire shops won't just to try & keep their prices down.

Anyone else running the Sumitomos?? great tire so far now that they are properly balanced!

I like that chart. The two tires tied for 7th place the the tires I have on the Vette (BF Goodrich Sport) and the PT (Kuhmo SPT).
