USA Houston Boxter S

[RandallNeighbour]

Your boxSter (start adding an S in the name) will roll well on lots of rubber, but my preference is currently Hankook Ventus V12's for Houston hot and humid streets ... As good IMO as tires costing 2x more.

If you have $1,300 or more, buy Michelin PS2's. Those 19s are gonna kill you price-wise though. You will wish you had 18s sooner than later.

I bought my Boxster in April. I live in Michigan and it will spend winters in my garage. I had V12s put on it a week and a half ago. I am very happy with them so far.

also think you cannot beat the price and performance of the hankooks. Best price I have found is discounttiredirect.com they ship free. I have bought many sets from them.

I live in west central Florida - so similar temperatures, and the HankookV12s on my 03 S when I bought it 2 years ago. Drove them and were happy with them until I tracked the car at Sebring - found them slippery and weak in the sidewalls.. I just changed the rears out with Kumhos several months ago, and prefer those greatly to the Hankooks.. Will be changing the fronts to Kumhos too....
