In comparison to my factory summer tires these Hankook's are excellet in all aspects. Better dry and wet grip AND better ride comfort with lower noise. Off the line grip is definetley improved, and they corner very nicely. I think that right now these are the top choice in the size 215/45/18 in the maximun performance tire category. Had an incident where I was driving too fast for the wet conditions, and was able to brake in an emergency situation without even engaging the ABS. Truly impresive. Not looking forward to repeat that though. My heart won't survive it again. But it's nice to know that you have great braking abilities in both dry and wet conditions.

Just installed a set of Hankooks on my 2007 Corvette. After only 200 miles, I can honestly say that they blow the Goodyear F1 Supercars away for ride comfort, noise and handling in wet and dry conditions. At half the price of the Gooodyears, I can't see a resaon for ever going back.

I use these tires on my daily driver/autocross Corvette. With 1200 miles on them, they have been through two autocrosses, both with hairpin turns and S's. They hold as well as PS2's and SO3's. The Ventus v12's are one of the better tires I've used in autocrossing the last 40 years. Also, good on the highway in the dry and wet. Time will tell if they have decent tread wear.

2006 Honda civic coupe ex 5spd w/ 17" Si wheels. I bought the car for its mpg's while commuting to work but it's a fun little go cart as well. These tires stick to the road. Noise levels, ride comfort, and handling is worlds above the Kumho ECSTAs that were on the car previously. I just vacationed in Maggie Valley, NC. The mountain roads were a blast to drive on with these tires!

These are the fourth set of tires on this car, Dunlop, Continentals, & BFG G-Forces. Although I don't have many miles on them, they are a real treat to own,and out perform the others in ever way. Every trip in my car is a pleasure cruise. I bought them after reading the tire comparsion in Car & Driver, Aug. 09, and couldn't be more please. Oh Yeah what a Bargin

I use this tire on my Maserati Quattroporte and Merc. 55 AMG. In my opinion they are equal to the P Zero's at a much better price.

I just put these tire on but I am delighted so far. They are much quieter than the Michelin Primacy HPs that came with the car and they are almost half the price. The tread design is very aggressive and looks awesome.
I owned one set of Hankook Vensus on a VW Touareg and I loved them.
