Hankook Ventus V12 vs Michelin Pilot Sport 4S

What tires are you running now and what do you think of them? If your hardcore into handling performance then the PS4S or the older PSS are the only way

What tires are you running now and what do you think of them? If your hardcore into handling performance then the PS4S or the older PSS are the only way to go for daily driving. Also, with the Nismo rims I would run 275/35-19 front.

The only Tyre that is close to the PS4s are the Bridgestone RE-11.

Currently have my winter set up (Blizzaks) on since im still waiting for my new rims to come in and I only drove on the factory summer tires for a few months before I had to through the winters on so i cant really comment. Regardless im gonna get the Michelin's, and 275 is to much meat for me on a 9.5 inch rim

I am running 275/35 on the 9" front sport Rays which is the minimum rim width recomended. The 9.5" Nismo fronts would be fine. Reduces understeer and balances handling.

The Ventus V12 may be worse that the stock summer tires that came on your Nismo. The Michelin's are a good choice especially since you have a set of winter tires to run in the cold.
