I have these Hankooks on all 4's with about 20k on them....it's gettin time for some new one's soon...can prob stretch till May-June if I dont do the Spring Dragon(Fall Dragon ate alot of my rubber off the fronts). I think I will get the 285's out back. I like fat rears.........literally.

SRT SIX,

Wanted to make sure you had the tires I was thinking of.

Hankook Ventus V12 EVO K110.

I have had the Hankooks on for quite a while and I love them as summer tires. Unforunately they do get pulled off for the winter for blizzaks to go on...



I love the ride on my Hankooks.

Please keep us up to date on these tires. I'd like to see pics when possible, especially the rears. It's great that they offer so many size choices.
I didn't want "rubber bands" out back when I have to replace mine, so again, I'm curious about the look and feel of the rears.

Cheers
Paul

I posted an update on my thread: NEW TIRES - Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110 but here it is again

I just put 2000 miles on these new tires in just 5 days with my recent trip to North Carolina ..."Tail of the Dragon" GTG
550 miles of high speed turns in the mountains and I can tell you that these tires are EXCELLENT !!!:
Very quiet and no rubbing issues at all


Went with the 285/35/19 on the rears........
