[s-cars] Sumitomo HTR+

[Daniel Hussey]

Well, the tire that was all the rage was the Sumitomo HTR-Z2, but as far as
I can tell, this tire has been discontinued.  This was the advanced
performance tire with a more rain tire design (good water shedding and
hydroplane resistance).  Also, the Bridgestone Potenza SO-2 Pole Positions
have been discontinued (also an AWSOME rain tire)...

What are the good choises now???  I'm looking at the Bridgestone Potenza
RE750 and the Firestone Firehawk SZ50's.  Anyone have experiences with
these???  These are actually for a Porsche.

Later,
