Tires Hankook or NANKANG

The Ventus V12 EVO K110 is Hankook's Max Performance Summer tire developed for the drivers of sports cars, sporty coupes, and high performance vehicles. A PROVEN street-tire known to deliver superb control and braking.

Little bit too late, but i ma using the same tyre now. First impressions are really good, its quiet and comfort, acting well also. For that price i think you cant beat them with anything.

I've got the same brand tires on my car, 10,000 miles on them and they are still good. Taken them on a 300 mile roadtrip, 90+ mph speeds, dirt roads.

I have 17x8 RPF1's with 245/40 R17 Hankook V12's and I have no problems with rubbing. Final et is 35 in the front and 30 in the rear on my car. I'm also lowered on ST Coils to about a 2 finger gap all around.

I had NS-2's and loved them.

So far so good. I've put close to 500 miles on them they seem to be really quiet, and handle well in the rain. They stretch well, ride quietly, and they are cheap so I have no complaints.

I had both the Sumitomos and Hankooks on my R32. Hankooks had more grip after they were broken in. The Sumitomos became noisy towards the end while the Hankooks were quiet down to the wear bars. I'd rate them both better than the Dunlop Sport Maxx's that came with the car. The Hankooks on my GTI seem to have quicker steering response and seem less squishy than the R32. Probably because I am running 235/40 on the GTI and had 225/40 on the R32. 235's have a higher load rating. Plus the R32 was a heavier car.

Had a set on my s2000 and liked them too. Very good rubber for the money. Predictable, good wet grip, not incredibly noisy either. They also held up well right until I cooked the rears off below the wear bars.

I've run both tires on 18x8.5. The falken 215/40's were smaller than the 205/40 AS-1's..I rubbed hard with the As-1's The AS-1's are a pretty true to size. I know what you are trying to do, and the AS-1's won't help. Edit: this is the best picture I have to show how true the tires are..as you can see it's not a great looking tire for the size.

Ordered a set of Michelin Primacy's to replace the junk Hancooks VW put on the car.
