They are just as good at a cheaper price. Now I have to see how long they last!
I have the hankook ventus v12's right now and they are great.

^ remember the front tires had a bit of camber wear on the inside? Now they're completely bald on the inside lol and the rear is pretty bald on the inside but not as bad. I got a camber kit now so it shouldn't worsen. I should of gotten it as soon as I dropped the car. Trying to save ends up costing you more in the long run sometimes. Oh and I'm gonna paint the wheels gloss black soon with the center caps staying gunmetal

Hmmm. Thing is I'm not sure how that 225/35 will stretch on a 10.5...wouldn't it be kinda like running the 235/35 from hankook? I need to make sure I have less of a stretch than now. The Hankook I know will fit for sure and won't rub. It's just the last time they did it, the inside was mounted perfect but the outside wasn't. I'm also gonna have them let the tires sit outside in the heat for a few hours to make the stretching easier.
