After 800 miles on these tires, hydroplaning became a major issue. I stopped to inspect the tires and they are COMPLETELY BALD! I have had these tires for one month and they already need to be replaced! My last set were Yokohama S-Drive and they lasted a year on the same car, same driving conditions. This is inexcusable. I started a claim with tirerack and their response was "there is no treadwear warranty because it is a high performance tire" so the rep contacted Hankook to see if they would offer something as a courtesy since 4 week tire life is awful, along with pictures and proof of recent purchase and Hankook offered me a 30% credit once the tires are returned...just 30%.
If you enjoy throwing money out the window or frequent conversations with your selected installer, these tires are for you! You can do both, monthly! I will never put a set of Hankooks on my car ever again, and I won't recommend anyone else does either. Absolute garbage and their service is just as bad. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk |

When's the last time you had an alignment or even checked your current specs? The only time I've had tread life that bad was when my alignment was COMPLETELY out of spec after changing all of the front suspension arms on my GS430.

lol 4 weeks and they look like that? I know the V12s suck but they can't possibly be that bad. How many times did you smoke those tires to eat up 8/32" of tread in 4 weeks (and how many miles)?

They lasted 800 miles, city and highway. I was able to get a 40% refund from tirerack, but the tires don't have a treadwear warranty so they said it was a "goodwill" credit. They were literally useless before my $100 rebate even arrived.

Loved my PSS, I've got the V12s now, definitely not as good, but a decent everyday tire. Gonna try re 11s next

Having been equipped with the V12 EVO2, I am satisfied with them on my daily driving. ^^

I'm very curious to know how the hell you burned them that badly in 800 miles.
What sort of driving and temps? Alignment in spec? 800 miles is nuts Those look like they've been in burnouts daily or somethin crazy |

Alignment is on point, done by Nissan as a matter of fact. Driving habits haven't changed and temps in the 80s. The tires are garbage, not sure how else to put it. Yokohama s drives lasted me a year, these lasted 4 weeks and don't have any kind of treadwear warranty. I will never buy hankook again.
