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.
So far (300 miles) I have noticed the following; 1. Bridgestone tires seem to have more wet grip than the Kuhmo's
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.
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.
I just put on the Hankook Ventus V2 Concept 2s and the ride and noise level on these are absolutely fantastic for a discount tire. Rain performance is bleh though. I would recommend them for a car you don't corner with every time. Now let's see how long this quiet ride lasts...
I would not buy Hankook or Kumho again, personally... not for daily-driver tires anyway.
