Tire review: Hankook Ventus V12 or Sumitomo HTR Z III

[$teady$upreme]

Just wondering have anyone tried these Hankook Ventus V12, I just read the reviews and ratings on tirerack, they seems to be pretty good tires.

Anyone tried them out? And seems like a lot of the Bimmer guys use these Hankook as well. They said the Hankook gives the performance as the PS2.

We haven't tested the Hankook and the Sumi "head to head" yet, but I would not expect a big difference between the two. Here's our test on the Sumi for reference;

I saw the reviews on the V12s, and think they're great tires. I think i'll most likely pick up a set.

Any deals on 235/40/18 Doc?

I LOVE my Hankook Ventus V12s. Great dry traction and surprisingly good wet traction. Also, they aren't wearing excessively or anything. I decided to give them a try after reading the comparisons I refer to in this post, and am very happy w/ them.

Love my HTR Z3's. My friend also won his class STU in his 335xi autocrossing with these tires.
