Sumitomo HTR ZIII
Anyone using Sumitomo HTR ZIII? I found some posts here about HTR+, but not HTR ZIII.
Tirerack testing indicates they're pretty good overall, and they're inexpensive compared to other tires that tested well. I'm considering them in 215/45/17 for an MCS.

A new Max Performance Summer tire.
Tests are good-
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tests/...ay.jsp?ttid=93
Shows that for dry handling it's good but not as strong for wet handling- see also longer braking distance in the wet.
Not many good sizes for the MINI, 300 treadwear
215/45-17 $88 each 23 lbs 24.5" tire diameter, works with 7-8" wide rims.
245/40-17 $95 each 25 lbs 24.6" tire diameter, works with 8-9.5" wide rims.
Note the 245/40-17 tire is very wide so lowered MINIs would be a risk for rubbing.
