I love my PS's but I'm dead in the water with a nail through the sidewall and now they don't come in a 335/30ZR18 anymore. I had to switch to Pirelli Rosso's. Got them from Tire Rack. Hopefully, they get here in time to go to BG.

Sumitomos are NOT crap.....1st not everyone has 1600 bucks laying around for new Goodyear's. 2nd, I'd like to know why you think they are crap? I love mine....tread has held up over 2 years of hard driving. There is virtually no road noise from these Sumos. Grip is just fine for me, I don't track my car and don't plan on it. I have never had any issue with mine.

My Z's are daily drivers. The tires (sumitomos) have exceedingly poor treadwear. Maybe it's the heat in Arizona? They have a smaller profile than any other tire that fits our Z and they are the tire you would expect to find on a potential car you plan on buying so the seller can state the car has new tires. Your mileage may vary however they are what they are cheap tires.

My Beast is a daily driver over the past 2 summers. Rain or shine, in fact it is a downpour this morning and my Z drove beautifully. My treadwear is non existent, I bought the Sumos when I bought the car 2 years ago...... and that was followed by about a week of random burnouts The Arizona heat could be a factor, so could driving styles. We can agree to disagree on this one. I know that Goodyear probably makes a better tire than Sumos. But from my seat time, I think they are a great quiet road tire, with a smooth ride.
