I put a set of the Hankook on my car and they have performed well. I just replaced the rears on my 18" turbo twist wheels with a pair of the Sumitomo HTR ZIII's which were $330 installed, balanced etc. I wasn't aware of the ZII though the Hankook's would have been around $400 for the same size (265/35 18). They're very quiet, have a nice ride and handle every bit as well as the Hankook Ventus V12.
