...what tires are you running on the front

are you going with a different size sumi or are you using another brand that has the proper sizing

Are they discontinued?

What size wheel? I have the correct 225-40 X 18 Sumis on my car but maybe you have 17" wheels?

When I used to run Sumis with my 18" wheel I would just use the standard sizes for that wheel.

I'm on Bridgestones now but never had to change sizes when switching between the brands.

i was under the impression that the sumis didnt come in 225-40-18s. the place i was looking at said that they couldnt get the fronts only the rears at 285-30-18

TireRack is your friend.

They do indeed, I am on my 2nd set of Sumi's...

225 up front

285 in the rear

yes looks like nice prices for sure but factoring in our C$ and shipping etc. that it works out to be almost the same here. and technically we cant get sumi's here due to there not being a distributor here. so right now just getting the rears here and the fronts ordered in from tirerack, is almost the same price as getting 4 conti ec dw installed here.
if/when we get close to parity again then for sure its worth it.

Have you checked Amazon? With Prime, there's not even a shipping charge. I've noticed that my sizes 225 & 265 aren't always in stock, and the price varies as well, but usually comes around.

Very happy with my sumis. I got them from Deluxe Truck Stop.

I picked mine up Direct from Tire Rack's distribution center in Denver. 2 hour drive both ways for me, but I save on shipping costs I suppose.

Has anyone had to use Tire Racks road hazard coverage? The fine print Has a few clauses that concern me

dgi 07

Haven't had to use it but have deal with time claims at least once a week, ( dealer tech)what concerns you?

What kind of mileage are you guys getting out of the rears on the Sumis?

I'm on my third set of rear Sumi's. No track days, just normal driving. I find they are trashed at about 15,000 miles. Usually there is some tread left on the wear bars, but wet traction is noticeably worse, and they start to get noisy.

My Michelin Pilots on the front just gave up the ghost, so my latest set is the first time I've had Sumi's at all 4 corners. I like them, especially for the price. They do flat spot overnight, even in warm weather, but that goes away after a couple of miles.
