Sumi HTR ZIII and Hankook V12 are both great choices for street tires. I have had both on my Boxster and they perform great and have good grip. You can't beat their price/performance ratio.
They are just not good track/AX tires. Of the 2 the Suni's were OK on the track and the Hankooks, get greasy when subjected to the heat generated at the track. For street driving and canyon carving both are great choices

You can probably buy 2 sets of Sum's for the cost of 4 Pilot Super Sports. Bear in mind that you generally go through 2 sets of rears for 1 set of front tires.

I am getting the Sumi's for my DD wheels now that I have a set of wheels for track and AX


woohoo.... my 2000th post
