And then my 2nd, which was a much more detailed review of the V12s, including both pros and cons:
The V12's have treated me very well, and I've been extremely pleased with them.
They've had great longevity, but still grip well (a combination you don't see often)
Also good wet-weather handling, and when they do break loose, it's very linear.
They are starting to get more noisy the older they get though, but let's face it, no tire can deliver everything, and the V12s deliver on the things that are most important to me. Especially when you factor in their relatively low price.

1st: Recommend Toyos - ok, great.
2nd: Recommend a different tire, and then a different Hankook - Not sure why you changed your tune, but ok, whatever
3rd: Argue with BuckeyeInMI
4th: Argue with BuckeyeInMI
5th: Argue with G35SedanGrn
6th: Argue with me (Randomly call out a friend of mine because someone pulled in front of him? whtev)
7th: Argue with me (And admit you don't even have a G???)
8th: Argue with me some more... (Using two posts BACK TO BACK to tell ME not to clutter a thread????? srsly?)
I'm not PMing you, and I'm not discussing this any more. If you wanted to give advice to someone and have them listen to what you say, don't attack everyone else in a thread, it just makes you look bad.
In the interest of keeping the OPs thread free from any more clutter, I'm dropping the subject entirely, and I'd advise you to lay off the arguing for a while.
As a side point to Mike:
Why wouldn't you track a Sedan? They're just as capable as a coupe, and easier to make light... if you're going to say a sedan doesn't belong on the track, by the same rule a coupe has no business on the track either, as the Z is more track worthy.
I realize Hankooks are cheap tires... but coming from someone that's driven on lots of different cheap tires, let me tell you that not every tire in the same price bracket has the same performance, not by a long shot. Some are ok and some are complete garbage. Granted none of them are track tires, but then again, nobody in their right mind puts track tires on a DD (which is more than likely what the OP is asking about)
If the OP is indeed talking about DD, then track tires should have never even entered the discussion.
I think it bears to ask the question:
OP, what exactly are you looking to get out of a tire?

Well seeing as I said 3 times I don't want to continue to clutter OPs thread, I argued with people that try and argue for no reason. I'm done with the subject too, I still stand by what I said, buy the cheapest tire you can find..that's my opinion, I even recommended a tire size too. I personally wouldn't track a g sedan, if I wanted a 4d for HPDE/DD I'd get an EVO, but that's another subject for another thread.
As much as it saddens me to inject a little reality into your delusion, let me just remind you of my first post in this thread:

I have seen OE 18's with a 275/35/18, but it didnt look good. The tires sidewall bulges out like a truck tire. I would stick to a 255 width at most.
There is a pic of that car on here somewhere.

Not the post I was looking for, but it will work.
