The Sumitomo's have better reviews and are priced good. Good dry and wet road handling. Decent ice/snow dusting control. I believe LT's even come with 60,000 mile warranty. But the Toyo's are a better deal. And good reviews too. They might even have 50 to 60,000 mile warranty too.
Everything else I researched reviews on are comparable in performance but these two brands are a better deal.
