Sumitomo Tires

Before you guys jump all over me, all I want to know is if someone has a link for the Sumitomo TIre Web page. I cannot find it anywhere

Thank you in advance

If you want to throw your two cents in about what are better

ContiExtreme Contact or Sumitomo HTR+ for someone who lives where it snows and wants a good all season it would be appreciated.

Ciao for now

Did you try http://www.sumitomotire.com/?

I heard the Contact Extremes are very good tires. I have the Sumitomos and they're good too.

The only problem with the Sumitomo's.....they don't make an OEM size for the 5th gens. I wrote to them and asked about the HTR+'s in 225x50x17, and they said it could be another year before they make that size.

Aren't the sidewalls on the Conti's softer than on the Sumitomo's?
