I'm not looking to auto-x or drag, these are just daily driver tires. Price is pretty nice too, $210 shipped. Let me know what you guys think.

 

Wouldnt recommend them for OEM-quality, nor will they last as long as a BFG, Michelin, or Yokohama. A lot of the time with tires it is "you get what you pay for"

 

Instead of crappy tires, I think you would be much better off buying the excellent Yokohama ES100 in that same size from the Tire Rack for $53/tire, and shipping will cost you less...

 

Ive never used Hankook tires but dont consider them crappy. FWIW, they do use the same exact machinery and technology of that of Michelin. Yes, Michelin.

Hankook tires will soon be found as OEM tires on some of the upcoming DOMESTIC made trucks.

that's what i was going to say

 

size is too small for a Teg... H-rated even the junk OEM tires are V-rated.

At $53 a tire, it should cost you about $240 for (4) Yokohamas AVS ES 100 shipped to your house.

I would definately pay the extra $30 to feel satified I went with a solid brand.

 

Try costco/ sams club

 

for the longest time Hankook was the (or is?) one of the OEM Manf. that BMW was using....

 

bmw has always used continental and michelin tires.

hankook is much like kumho tires...they use older michelin designs and technology advances. mainly because michelin tires are evolving quite rapidly.

i would stick with dunlop, bfg, michelin or even yokohama.

 

i say buy the tires... and write up a Review.

 

Michelin Tires are great. Expensive, but you get what you pay for. My tires costed me 150 each and they are still very very good considering the way I drive.

regular michelins are good tires.....but the ones they put stock onto the integra are made to honda spec (XGT V4's). they SUCK.

now if you go purchase the Pilot XGT V4's, quite a difference.

but for $150, there are far better tires for less money than that.

 

I have the Hankook HR405 in 205-45-16 on my Rota C8s and I've been more than happy with them.

I don't auto-x or drag & use them on my daily driver.

Tread life has been great, I can't complain about grip, & wet traction is good. I haven't lost control on wet ground yet with these (knock on wood) but then again when it's wet out I take it easy so I don't end up wrapped around a utility poll.

I say get them if all you have is a daily driver.

 

Bridgestone S-03 Pole Positions

I went cheap last year on tires with Kumho 711's. The difference between those and the S-03's are night and day and then some.

 

I'll stick with Michellins or Goodyear and for my sport tires I'll go with Falken

 

I have hankooks ventus 205 40z 17 not bad tires at all i dont think ive really lost traction ever in the rain taking a turn and i think the only time i ever really really lost traction in a turn was on ice that i didnt no was there...black ice...besides that id say they are good overall tires

 

At least get KUMHO, they are about the same price as the Hankook.

 

Pirelli

 

Yokohama ES100

 

I like the ES-100's also, I put them on my 95 GSR stock wheels. The car handles well with them on and they are pretty quiet. Although I am weary about the tread life that I'll get out of them, since from past experiences Yoko's have never lasted a long time, but as far as performance vs. cost you can't go wrong.
