Honestly I don't know. They haven't really been put up against the V12s. I've done some research and the rank very well against the PS2s.

I would venture to guess they are probably a better summer tire than the V12s. The Hankooks have nice grip for a Max Performance summer but the feel is on the sloppy side compared to the RE050s, PZeros, and PS2s of the world.
