I will say, my only gripe with the Hankook Ventus V12 is that the sidewalls are soft. I had my fronts bubble up like CRAZY when I had them. If it were my way, they'd have super reinforced sidewalls haha. But at that point it may affect the way they stretched.

Strictly basing things on the appearance though, I would say they look the best in my opinion. They're not practical without reinforced sidewalls though.

Was your car aligned? I was able to get 30,000+ miles out of my Hankooks...

I plan on running 245-35-19 and 275-30-19 in rear.
Want some poke, my rear fenders are rolled and pulled pretty good, have some 25mm spacers i could throw in...just need to fill the rear pull up, i'd say its pulled about an inch, little less maybe. I can go as low as I need to

drop on rays
Damn jae35, your cars looking nice in this pic! what front bumper is this again?

Jae with the rear fenders flared like that you can do some crazy fitments!!!
do like 19x10 19x11 +15 all around!! (just guessing, but i think that would be reasonable for a hefty pull)

do it!!!! BTW your G ride is CLEAN.

I've noticed my nanakngs actually wear really slowly even at -6 degrees I can still get 10k per side out of them before they even show belts.

And achilles are kind of weird, they run small but appear to run large because of the rounded sidewall like levon said.

Charles put at least 10k on his Nankangs per side...and you know him. Running -8 or so camber.

Yea, tell me about it...This will be my second time getting it repaired...I'm considering deleting my side markers and customize the bumper and make it fill in where the side marker lights go. Why can't someone make a poly kurookie ;P

Thanks man!
Wheels are 19x9.5 +28 fronts and 19x10.5 +29 rears.
Tires are 225/35 front and 245/35 rears.
Camber at around negative 3.5-4 not sure exactly.
Going to lower it more also and get spacers as well.

Quick question for all the slammed guys, recently got the car aligned and for the rears I am currently at -6 degress for camber. The specialist did the best he could with the SPC toe setup that came with the SPC rear camber arms to get it back to spec. What brand rear toe arms did you guys go with to give us the flexibility to get the toe back into spec to prevent premature tire wear?
