Hankook tires are fantastic, out of all the brands I have tried Hankook is my favorite by far. The last set I had were the RS2 street legal autox tires and they were absolutely amazing in the wet and the dry.

The Hankook v12 evo's are just $166/00 at Onlinetires.com. Are there any fit issues with putting 275's on the rear?

I met a lifelong tire dealer at a party a month or so ago. He swears by Hankook tires and runs them on his personal 'Vette.

You could fit 315's in the rear if you have the proper rims as that's what I run at the track. I also run 295's on the street............until next week when my new shoes and socks arrive.

That's what I run on my XF, stock sizes. Grip is not so great when they are cold, but once warmed up, very sticky! These were a new design for 2008. Did much research on different tires, and these were said to be some of the better tire choices for the price point.

Oh my god! I was checking out the prices on some of those Zymol products. Is this company owned by the Church of Scientology or something?

When ya want the best ya got to dish out bit more
I have an auto detaling shop and use Zymol on all my high end vehicles
Yes Zymol does have the $6500.00 bottle wax but for rare paints.
Ever have a chance use Carbon on on your Xfire.
Make sure you prep paint correctly (most important) then Carbon away you can realy see the difference. Oh forgot to say it realy doesnt last long 4-6 weeks here in Canada. I do my xfire every 2 weeks hahahahah
Ok im a show off but love the show quality of my baby look at pics she will be 6 years old this july,09 what can i say

I just placed the order for the 275/35/19's and it went through at the $103 apiece price. Shipping was $44.00 to Iowa. Surprisingly the OEM size of 255/35/19 is $162.00 more per tire! Goodyear Eagle GS-D3's at $103!!!!!

The Goodyear deal at onlinetires.com is dead. They cannot get the tire (stating it is discontinued) and that the size they advertised was not even offered.
