About This Tire

The Sumitomo HTR A/S P03 235/45R18 is a summer tire designed for sports car, sporty coupe, and performance sedan drivers who prioritize high-performance handling and responsive steering feel in warm-weather driving. Its asymmetric tread pattern and silica-enhanced compound focus on reducing profile deformation during cornering while maintaining effective water evacuation for wet traction.

The tire features a solid, high-tension bead apex that promotes sidewall rigidity for improved steering response, while advanced "fin" designs in the outboard intermediate rib channel water to the shoulder area to reduce hydroplaning risk. The silica-enhanced compound is optimized for dry and wet performance, with the asymmetric tread pattern specifically engineered to maintain stability under aggressive cornering loads. Driver feedback points to strong grip in both wet and dry conditions, with good comfort levels and reliable treadwear characteristics for spirited driving.

Compared to true all-season tires, it emphasizes maximum warm-weather performance and handling precision over cold-weather capability. Overall, it's a solid choice for performance vehicles used primarily for enthusiastic driving in dry and wet conditions during warmer months.
