Hankook V12 longevity

Disclamer:

I have a NISMO, so I got Yokohama Advan Sports as Stockers.

/Disclaimer

I replaced my rears w/ V12 because my stock rears were shot (down to the steel belts) @ 25K. The fronts are still good and will last me a few more months. The V12s were kinda sucking when they were new, but got considerably better as I wore them in. Not as sticky as the Advan Sports, but compariable. Advans have a tread wear of 180 and the V12s have a tread wear of 280. Advans cost 290-360 for rears (depending on where you get them) and V12s cost around 220-245 for rears. I doubt I will go with the V12s up front though. Don't get me wrong, they are awesome for the price. I figure if I am going to replace the fronts, I am going to go with Yokohama Advans all around again or Hankook Ventus R-S3s (140 tread wear). Both tires are around the same price, but the Advans are the stock equipment.............meh
