I've had no problems with my Sumitomo Srixon-4.  H-rated, 215/60/16.  I'm
pretty rough on them, spinning the tires once in a while, cornering at the
tire's limit, etc.  They've lasted me 41k miles, and I'm now ready to
replace them.  I'd say if treated nicely they would be a 50k mile tire.

You know what you're getting.  An all-season tire.  Not great on dry, decent
on wet, marginal in snow.

I found 3-$50 tires, to be used for daily driver.  Never in snow, very
little rain.  No truck-like ride wanted.  Looking for
experience/recommendations. Falkien Sumitomo Kumho are the choices;
