You guys should read this since I know a lot of us use Summer tires and it's good to have some more testing done:

I think the Hankook will be my next tire!

 

interesting read.

 

very!! i see some dunlops in my future

 

I have the Hankook V12's and they are AWESOME!

 

Well, the Direzza Z1's have certainly been the nicest tires I've had on any car I've owned in my life and are probably overkill for the street, but you can sure fling the 8 into corners with nary a blink with that rubber. I don't have enough experience in the 8 with other tires to make an effective comparison, but other than wear rating, there's not a thing to complain about with the Dunlops.

 

Nice read. The Ling Long write-up was amusing. Like Chinese copies of cars and other products, blatant ripping off is only skin deep. The products don't perform and often perform disastrously.

However, just imagine if you had Ling Longs and Kumhos on your car. Could get very interesting...

 

...now i feel like my S.Drives were a bad purchase...i should have stretched for the star specs which was my first choice...

 

Could be worse you could have a Ling or a Long.
