In my eyes this is the best tires I 've ever had. In 2012 I bought Rav4 with Toyo tires. After 40k miles edges were gone and I bought all 4 Sumitomo HTR E. After few thousand miles one tire get bolt in so sonce then I do not rotate this set o tires and keep repaired at rear axle.
Rav4 has now over 90k and I will buy 2 HTR E just for front axle.
I was quite sceptical to buy one sided tires. I thought that if tire can not be turned on rim then will be wearing ouf fast. I was wrong. Now I understand that all teick is in steel mesh, how is formed. Eventualy, this tires have more worn center than edges (front exle) Rear axle is equal. If nothing happen then 6 tires I buy will last 120k miles on vehicle! 1st set of 4 60k without rotation, then ad 2 to front axle and ad another 60k miles.
OK. This was value. My Rav4 is V6 with 270hp. I drive fast, and accelerate. My wife does not. But I am impressed how this tires act on water and snow. I drove 100 mph on heavy rain and tires acts like on dry road.

Bought these to replace OEM Firestone tires on my daughters Toyota Yaris. Sticker than the OEM's and definitely better handling in both Dry and Wet. We'll see how the tread wear works out, these tires have a 70k tread wear warranty. Can't say much about winter traction as of yet.

Great value for the money. Have Simitomos on several of my vehicles and really like them. Very quiet, balance up well with minimal weight. Handle well and have excellent dry and wet traction. Get good mileage out of them compared to other higher price name brands that sell for much more. I highly recommend them.

Most drivers long for a tire that's built to last, and finding one that does this while also being able to perform in any weather condition can seem like a challenging. Fortunately, Sumitomo created the HTR Enhance LX2 to give these drivers a long tread life and year-round traction. Designed to put more rubber on the road for consistent contact and to improve the tire's lifespan, the HTR Enhance LX2 features a sipe pattern that offers more biting edges to improve performance in wintery weather. Offering drivers strong stability and steering response, the HTR Enhance LX2 is commonly used on touring sedans, coupes, and minivans.
