From the tread pattern they look like Hankook V12's

Tony for the win. Ventus v12s. Not the best but great tread wear and handle nicely and cheap for 19"

Funny. I just got a quote of 699 for the Hankook v12's today...mounted balanced installed for my 17". Thats why I was asking! This place does lifetime rotation, balancing etc and if a tire ever blows and cant be repaired they cover it.

Does 699 sound right for 17" wheels???

JAAY 09-04-2012 05:23 PM

Sounds like a great deal

Sounds About Right

I got four v12's and a four wheel alignment about a month ago for $770.00.

For all tire pricing I would check Tirerack.com or Discounttire.com

Both great sites with a large selection. Tire Rack is one of my all time favorites because you can select your car, tire size options, and even view wheels on your car! Woohoo! lol

That's a good price, I found the same ones for my 17" online for the same price but that was just for the rubber, no balancing or alignment.

I picked up a set of V-12s back in April, they were offering up a nice rebate on TireRack. I wasn't happy with them at first, real slick and wanted to break loose in a hard corner. Nothing like the Ps2's that came off the car. Once I broke them in (2-300 miles) they became very precise and predictable. I'd recommend them.

I just checked Tire Rack, $346 for a set of 4 after rebate. You can have them delivered to an authorized dealer for install and have the rebate mailed to your home. BTW, don't let them try and sell you on a rotation package.

Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110
Front: 205/50ZR17
Rear: 255/40ZR17

Exhaust update. DRONE!!!!! But the f'n wickedest sounding Boxster I have ever heard.

Boxtaboy 09-06-2012 04:07 PM

Jay, is it as much drone as the GHL?...GHL sounded nice too, but the drone was pretty bad. That exhaust looks awesome though. Congrats.

JAAY 09-06-2012 04:35 PM

Probably more drone. Lol. I'm not kidding but it sounds nuts in person. See you soon.
