I'm running the Sumitomo's here with no complaints. 315's out back and 255x40's up front. For the money c'mon....they can't be beat. Do they perform like a KD or GSD-3....naw but they don't cost a arm & a leg either

For dry conditions the answer is yes. They are not recommended for wet conditions. I'll switch mine out once winter comes.

Yeah, DR's SUCK in the rain. I try not to drive in the rain with them but I live in Florida so rain comes unexpectedly

I've been planning on some 17x10.5 bullitts. Could you even tell the diff with stock 17x8's on the front and 17x9's on the back ? Anyone got pics of that setup?
