Cheap too.Hankook K107/ S1 EVO 275/30/19 Cost me 340 bucks fitted, and IMHO are streets ahead of V103's.I'm thinking of putting these on my wife' golf and using her car as a test bed. It's off putting that even dealers that sell them always steeryou away from Hankook or Kumho and toward the Big four.

And these look horn too! Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/34138-tyres-27530r19/page/2/#findComment-521942 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have them in 255/35 19 on the rear and they grip awesome.

And these look horn too!I think you should take a test drive in a car with some top level tyres mate.Bridgestone RE050, Continental Sport Contact 2, Goodyear GSD3, Pirelli P Zero Rosso, Yokohama V103, Michelin Pilot Sport 2.Hankooks won't be anywhere near the peformance level of the tyres listed above. Sure they may be good, but compare apples with apples.Compare the Hankooks with Second level tyres like Kumho SPT's, Falkens, Michelin Pilot Preceda 2, Pirelli P Zero Nero, Bridgestone S03's, Maxis, Dunlop Max's etc..I guarantee they won't be winning any competitions there either.

A few weeks ago they were all rubbish Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/34138-tyres-27530r19/page/2/#findComment-522147 Share on other sites More sharing options...
