The HTR 200 is Sumitomo's High Performance Summer tire developed to meet the needs of today's sports cars, coupes and sedan drivers, as well as offers modern size options for many vintage sports cars. It is designed to blend comfort, wear and performance on wet and dry roads, but it is not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.
The Sumitomo HTR 200 features a silica- and natural rubber-enhanced tread compound molded into a symmetric tread design with stable independent shoulder and intermediate tread blocks to provide dry road handling and enhance wear. The HTR 200 radial's wide circumferential and curved lateral grooves team up to enhance wet traction and reduce the risk of hydroplaning. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by JointLess Band (JLB) spirally wound nylon belt edge strips to deliver high-speed durability while it reduces weight and helps provide a more uniform ride quality.
