Does anyone have experience with Sumitomo HTR+'s?

I had them on 17" Rota Attacks from the tirerack - they were only marginally better than the RE92's - they were noisy and didn't improve my braking distance any perceptible ammount. They do okay in the snow though.

I then bought S0-3's and WOW those are amazing tires, wet or dry, but in the snow, suicide is less scary than S0-3's.

I'll have to respectfully disagree with the highlighted statement. My RE92's were absolute crap as most everyone on here knows, whereas my Sumitomo's hold the road quite well, corner hard without much sidewall rollover, and coupled with my Stoptech pads up front, Axxis pads in the rear, stop quite well. I don't know if it has to do with the fact that mine are HTR-Z II's
