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.
Another vote for the Hankooks. FWIW, they are VERY good in the rain. Had a situation on the way home today where I had to stop short (been raining all day here), and they just grip the road. I was more worried about the guy behind me.
I've had a different model of Hankook for about 4 and a half years and I am actually going to replace them with the same model in a week or so. Very happy with the Hankook.
Ran the V12's on my 951 for over a season of auto-X and track days - they were pretty monstrous, especially for the price. Wet grip was amazing too. Like many here, I'd stand behind the Hankooks!
I'd go with the V12 out of those choices. I had them on my GTO and they were pretty good for the money.
Another vote for the Hankook's have them on my 911 and love them.
Ventus V12 is a really good tire. Feel great after a few thousand miles and some of the tread is gone. If you are at stock ride height and wheel ET I'd go a bit wider to 235/40 X 18. Better traction and higher handling limits.
I had the V12 evo on my GTI and M3. They were good for the money IMO.
The V12s were fine in the wet on my GTI, but pretty iffy on the M3. Some of that may have also been related to the way I drove either car and each car's respective power. The M3 basically spun the rear tires in the wet on anything but Michelin Pilot Super Sports (which were absolutely phenomenal in the dry & wet).
I had the 18" Hankook tires on my 2012 Highline and managed to get almost 50,000 KMs out of them before I traded the car. They were always quite noisy, and they wore terribly.
