Great tires, very pleased
Review for Sumitomo Encounter HT 225/70R16 103T BSW originally posted on giga-tires.com
"Bought these for 03 Highlander last year; Have over 12K miles now, they still look and feel brand new. Very smooth, quiet, handle well and great wear. Mainly dry CA driving but work great in rain & mountains. Tires-easy had most competitive pricing with shipping/tax/road hazard and shipped very promptly. Will buy again for other vehicles when need new tires."
