Hankook V12 longevity

I got about 19K out of my rears. I'll probably get about 25K out of my fronts. This was with 1 HPDE as well.

I replaced my stockers all around with these at around 14K. I got about 17K out of them (replacing the rears as we speak and actually came here to post my results). Fronts are at 6.5/32nds. These will last you a little longer than stock, but if you are looking for significant gains in longevity, look elsewhere. I picked them for their wet weather capabilities, which while not amazing are better than the stock Potenzas through puddles. I'm going with something different this time and will report back. My car does not see track duty, but does see a lot of highway miles, so how the tires handle at the extreme limit are not a consideration for me.
