Well he got them from UAE for about 1800SR for 17'' tires. Dunno the offests though.

Im not sure if they have em in SA. But theres a big chance. Since most Bahrainis go to SA to get their tires.

I'm looking for a website to order them off, when im buying them. I've checked Tirerack they don't have em. and i couldn't find any site where i will be able to get it off them.

lol yeah Joker I've fallen in love with this forum the moment I set eyes on it. Thanks for the linky though I'll check it out

and Bahg35 thanks for your review on these tires, they sure do look like the best choice ATM I just hope I can get them here, or at least buy them from UAE and have them sent over at a reasonable price.

Thanks guys

there was a link to a tire review posted a while back that was actually a good comparison. I'll see if I can find it

I'm loving my new Hankook V12s in a 285/35; quiet smooth and seem to handle great.

I'm about to get my V12's installed, too. I originally opted for a new set of Falken FK452's or perhaps the Sumitomo HTRZ-III... but the V12's won mainly because:

- Nearly all reviews i've seen gave it high marks.
- There's a $50 rebate for it right now
- Going through Fatwallet, there's a 4.3% cashback for TireRack purchases

And, to top it all off:
- Hankook includes a limited tire hazard warranty for no additional cost. That alone is worth $20+ /tire if bought elsewhere, and is a rare offering these days.

Thanks for blowing my bubble dude, lol even though that review doesn't rate them highly, other reviews differ and I guess the only real way of finding out is to buy a set.

So I think I'll be going for the Nitto-Invo, I'll give you guys feedback on how they are (I know they'll be tons better than my worn tires)

I still couldn't get any info beside getting them from Dubai.
