Tires Hankook or Laufenn

There are Hankook RS4s, and then there are all other tires that cost more, need to be replaced more often, and are slightly faster. Best bang for the buck tire, I'm on my fifth set.

I use Hankook RS4s because endurance 200TW tires are cost effective. I can run them on my VN for at least an entire season and then some. It's gotten a bit chilly and there so the grip in colder weather is lacking if you're pushing it.

RS4 are a great all around track day tire. They wear fantastic, don't get really greasy and are predictable.

"LAUFENN S Fit AS" is my favorite for my M3. This is a subsidiary of Hancook.

I find the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo just as grippy as the PS4S but much cheaper. However, the ride quality suffers.

Since I can't get Michelins in the sizes I run anymore, I've switched to Laufenn (by Hancook). It's German for "runner", they are inexpensive and initial performance is excellent.

I have about 45,000 miles on a set of the Hankook DynaPro HT.

I like them a lot.

Just got new tires! Hankook Ventus V2's. Highly recommend!

I would pick the Ecopias, they are reviewed much higher than the Kinergy tires on tire rack (but far from the best). I got the Kinergys on mine and they are ok, but if it rains they are not the best and slip easily.

I am still kind of unhappy with Hankook and I'll probably avoid this brand in future. That said, it looks like my Hankook tires with 60k treadwear warranty were worn literally to ground in less than 25k miles in 3 years.
