I understand you all want to save $

and that buying tires is tough because there is so little good information out there.

The Sumitomo HTR + tires is mediocre in all 5 wet and dry performance categories but excellent and very good on snow and ice. It wears very quickly. On a 100 point scale, the difference was 22 points.

The Goodyear rates as very good across the board, not as good as the Michelin PS2 in wet and dry braking (very good versus excellent) and worse in rolling resistance (mileage). On a 100 point scale, the difference was 12 points.
