If your on a low budget i guess they will do... i have sumitomos on my 17's and ther enot very sticky at all

I have those tires, with my 4.10s I spin shifting into second for a couple seconds. Don't even think about launching on the street. They are quiet and ride nice though.

The Kumho 712's are nice for the $, only about $10 more each.
I ran 2 sets of them.... for another $20 each the BFG g-force sport are even better.

I have them. They were on the car when I bought them. They seem to be fine for stock power levels, but I'm sure the lack of traction will be a problem if you are modded at all.

For the price I don't think they can be beat.

I have those wheels they fill out my deep dish wheels nicely. for everyday driving the wheels are really good. but they are not the best for drag racing or anything.

I have them. They are OK for the money I paid. I can't really complain. I don't do much street racing so I rarely loose traction except for in 1st gear. I just hope these last pretty long. My Kuhmo 712s lasted quite a while and were pretty decent too.

I just bought some myself and they aren't too bad noise wise and only time will tell if they last a while, however I doubt it with such a low rating on treadware. For the price however, I can keep running these and save money

Sadly my automatic NPI can spin these tires so they really aren't the best at hooking from a dig, but I have yet to run them at the track to see how they do there.

Got a pair on the mach cause its mostly a DD and not a racer and they are decent for the money but I can spin through 1st, 2nd, and part of 3rd if I hammer it.

I have Sumi's on both cars and are good for the money for a DD

If you are only driving that much I would get a much more aggressive tire. Have you looked at the Nitto 555's or the BFG's?

Ok they suck for launching, but the most important part is they suck for braking

These stick a crapload better then the Sumi's... Back when my car was just making 390hp at the rear, it would spin the sumi's through 3rd with 3.73's... DO NOT USE THE SUMI'S ON THE FRONT, YOU WONT STOP! The Sessanta's are still pretty cheap too. Next tire up price wise would be a BFG DR, but those wear out fast, and suck when wet.

I still break the Sessanta's loose, but im playing with over 600RWHP now, They do seem to be holding up very well tread depth wise... with all the spinning i have been doing I would have killed a few sets of sumi's by now.
