Hankook Ventus V12 Evo

They are also comparing the tires to other 2nd to 3rd tier summer tires. I have competed with the Hankook V12 and the RE-11, the V12 is not in the same league in terms of speed. I like them for what they are, but don't paint them as the next coming

Definitely not the next coming, there are lot of better performing tires and I named a couple stickier candidates that won't break the bank and have solid magazine reviews. I hear the RE-11 are phenomenal, but they are twice the cost in 17" and 1/3 more in 19." I can see spending that trying to win a National event or you have enough money that it's not a concern, but that's a high premium for the recreational/aspiring racer on a budget.
