Tires Hankook or Nexen

On my MK VI R I run Hanhook Icept Evo's in the winter, they are a "snow" tire winter rated and all but they are also geared towards high performance. I feel very confident in conrnrs and such when its dry unlike some snow tires that are mush and don't handle well. In a car like the R it would be a shae to use a tire that doesn't allow the car to handle well when roads are dry or just slightly wet. the Icepts are a great snow tire. I have had zero issues wit their performance on snowy surfaces especially with the AWD you can basically go WOT from a stop in the snow and have no traction issues.

I am running 17x8 +45 Neuspeed RSe05 with 245/40R17 Hankook RS-3's with no problems

I get lucky out of the blue one day and luck into a set of virtually free new take off Hankooks from another new Jetta. I ditch the Contis and put on the Hankooks. HOLY COW. Drives like the car should have from day one.

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.

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.

The cheapest ones I would consider were the Hankook Ventus V-12's at $199 each, many others are closer to $400 a piece including the OEM Toyo's.

Nexen tires are cheap for a reason. While they may serve you just fine to putt down the highway they are inferior in about every measurable category to most reputable tires, lateral grip, braking, acceleration.
