I just had a set of OEM Hankook Optimos last ~65000 miles. Replaced them with a set of Hankook Ventus S1 Noble2's and all is good so far.
Only have used the Ventus V12 Evo/2 on my Boxster, have been pleased with them.
Used the V12's on my Saab, good wear and quiet and get about 35-40k miles out of them. R-S3's for rain tires on my track TT, they work well for both slightly damp track days and in the heavy rain. On the street they are quiet compared to the Nitto NT-05's and last longer 30k miles normally opposed to 15-20k.
I've run Rs-3s on the Alfa. They are good option for a budget performance tire because they wear really well.
I have Hankook tires on my '77 Town Car. Miles above the 35 year-old Michelin Xs they replaced. They are quiet and grippy in the corners.
I've driven Hankook Ventus V12 Evo 2's my dad's 993 quite a bit. No complaints, they work fine for highway cruising/spirited driving.
I had a set of Hankook Winter i*Pikes, and I liked them. Not as grippy as Blizzaks or Toyo G-02s, but they were also fairly cheap.
I use Blizzak WS80's and a couple 50lb sandbags in the trunk. No issues as long as there isn't a shit ton of snow. I still avoid all steep hills.
I have the V2 Concept2 all-seasons on my Mazda3 and the Ventus V12 Evo K120 summers on my Mustang. You really get what you pay for. The Concept2's have good ride and noise, but the wet performance is abysmal. The Ventus V12s are a decent performance tire but they greatly lack the dry grip of Pirelli P Zeros or Michelins.
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.
