I just bougth 2 Sumitomo HTR Z II from Tirerack.com My Yokohamas are almost bald and these look pretty good. But I saw this review and was wondering who bought these? Any new feelings on them?

This is my second set of these tires. They are great highway tires, quiet and comfortable. But they also have excellent grip for spirited cornering and are wonderful in the wet. Looking forward to finally getting on a road course soon with them. I am on my second set of these, for summer use only of course. -- Review Submitted 2005-03-09

Still love 'em. They were even quieter after scuffing them good on the road course in May. They held their grip really well, talked to me quite a bit to let me know that they were approaching their limit, but never let go.

My friend has them on his car too, he thinks they're one of the better tires for the money. I have HTR Z tires on my rims, I like 'em, seem to grip quite well. Unfortunately I have to sell my rims, I need the money for school
