Does anybody have Sumitomo HTR Z III tires?

They have these in 265/35/18 on tire rack for $163? How are they? How many miles you get out of them?

Hey, I have them on my clk430 and I just put them on my m3. They are great and are really cheap like you said. On my clk I have had them on for around 4k miles and there still good. Not really a comparison to the beating they would take from a C63 tho.

To answer your PM, I had them before I went to 20".

They seemed to wear just like the stock tires, but they were much cheaper.

I wouldnt say they are great, but they sure were cheap. Bargain tire, more road noise than stock, less performance

Of the discount performance tires, they are probably the best. Much better than General UHP. Tread life seems ok, but I don't think it's great.
