I need a new set of tires. I have had PZero Asimetrico, Michelin Pilot Sport and now the BS S-02A. With the exception of the PZeros, they are all excellent tires.

I use my car to commute, no track, and I am thinking of the new Hankook or Sumitomos based on their good reviews. Any suggestions?

 

Those are both great summer performance tires...

Sumitomo HTR Z III are made in Japan with 300 Treadwear AA Traction A Temp
I have these on my DD 2009 Lancer Ralliart and they are great! I took them to a Auto X event Last Sat... After 3 good laps to heat them up... They Grip very well and I notice that they started to ball up as they wear down around hard corning... They were as sticky as my Buddy's Evo 9 MR with Star spec... but then again Star Spec were sticky right off the bat.

Hankook V12 Evo are made in Korea 280 Treadwear AA Traction A Temp
I had those last before the Sumi HTR Z III... I feel that they both are up there in ranking very comparable... I have tracked the V12s on a few light runs... In my opinion they start to break lose around the corns are a good 10mins on the track... but as for DD and some aggressive drive on the weekends there GREAT...
