Sumitomo HTR T4 Tire Review

The Sumitomo HTR T4 tire combines a high technology all-season radial with a T speed rating to provide a tire that not only performs well, but comes in at a good value for those on a tight budget.

A symmetric tread design that is computer enhanced features independent tread blocks and shoulder to give this model a comfortable riding experience, as well as capable handling in all types of weather conditions. Wet road performance is improved through four circumferential grooves, a continuous center rib and multiple sipes built into the tread.

Durability is increased due to Sumitomo's use of twin steel belts and their unique Jointless Nylon Band technology.

Price Range
