Hankook Ventus V12 Evo

I know testing shows they are a good tire in the rain, but they are far from great. I backed that up last week in a rain autox, they weren't all that. I had more hydroplaning on them than some crappy stock econ tires

I won't be running at auto-x speeds on my way to work, but they can't be any worse than the stock tires were. No offense but I'll still put my faith in an actual test, with actual numbers and set criteria over your single anecdotal day in the wet.
