Hankook RS3! 1st One in the Country

Yes you read that correctly. Gruppe-S will be the 1st ones in the US with these types.

The Ventus R-S3 is new extreme Performance Summer tire developed for the

drivers of serious sports car, sports coupe and performance sedan enthusiasts

looking for race tire-like traction on the street or for use in autocross,

drifting and track events. It was created from the successful Ventus Z214

racing design and technology, brought to the street with improved road

contact surface area for dry traction. The result is a street tire delivering

extreme dry grip with the proven Hankook's racing tread compound.


Keep a watch out as Gruppe-S will be campaining this tire thruout the 2009 Formula Drift season.

Sizes?

Will they make 20" like Nitto did with the NT05? I would love to have something else to compare them to.

According to Hankooks Press release:
The Ventus R-S3 Z222 also features a unique “flame” design which is molded into the tread that will be aesthetically pleasing to consumers looking to show off their vehicle’s “hot” new shoes.
I love the wording!
