Tires Hankook or VITOUR
RS4's are going to be your best bet. I haven't bought track tires since RS3 >>> RS4, but the RS3's are an amazing tire for the money. Best thing about Hankook RS's is that they maintain decent grip through lots of heat cycles meaning you can run em to the cords.
The noise on the RS-RRs is the single worst ive ever run. If they are half as loud as the RS-RR im already sold. For the price the RS-RR is a great track day/autocross tire although they are not top tier(RE-71R/Rival) around my region.
An alternative to the Indy 500 tires is the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2. I have them on both of my cars and love them, although they are just a little bit on the noisy side.
I had hankook ventus v12 evo2's during the summer in the northeast and had them on many days where it got below 30, I just made sure to drive slower and I didn't have any problems.
Hankook RF-10 for anything truck wise. Quiet ride and excellent grip and wear in all conditions.
I have only ever used the Ventus V12 Evo2 tires. They were the exact opposite - tread lasted far longer than I expected. Had to replace them due to age, not mileage / tread.
I have 4 Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 2 on one of my cars and they are awesome tires. They are now nearing 2 years old and have done over 40k Km on them and they still have at least 30% thread left before hitting the thread marker.
I love the Hankook Dyanpro AT-M's on my 4Runner, they might be what you're looking for but there are several good options out there. They've been on my truck for 12,000 miles and as of last week they all had 7/32" tread left so they should last a while. Noise levels and wet/snow traction is very good as well.
I'm running the OEM Hankook Optimo 426s on my Fiesta, and they're just about to the wear bars at 53K. They wore pretty well, I guess, decent traction and noise control, not a bad tire overall.
Got some Hankook "100000 miles" H727 on the beater Honda. Within 3-4 years, or 50k miles later they're all shot. Tread is mostly gone. At the end I had a slow leak from cracks etc. The rubber ripped at the edges exposing the cord and leaks slowly, then rather quickly when it let go.
