Then in that case, if you want the best dry traction you can get the BF Goodrich TA KD, Bridgestone S-03 Pole Position, Goodyear Eagle F1 Gs-D3 and Kuhmo Ecsta MX and IIRC the Falken 615. Best all around dry is still the KD or 615s.

I can tell you from firsthand experience in my current vehicle that the Sumitomo HTR 200's are nowhere near the Yokohama ES100's in terms of overall grip. The Sumitomos are semi-performance all-season tyres that do well in road comfort but are mediocre in wet or dry traction. The sidewalls on the HTR 200's are also very soft, so cornering is much less confidence inspiring than with the ES100's.

HTR 200's are really for people who care more about road noise and tyre wear than traction on any surface (even on snow they're pretty mediocre). I wouldn't get them unless you were going to put them on an older street car which needs really small, skinny tyres.
