[QUOTE="ponyboyisaac, post: 11176691, member: 47830"] Ok i'm going to throw my 2 cents in here because I just got new tires a few months back and I'm am very very impressed by them. Keep in mind this is on a 2v with only 400rw torque, since you have a lot more power op. A little back story, I had 17inch bullitts with 10.5inch wheels in the back. I bought goodyear f1 g/s d3 315's for the back because they had decent reviews on the tirerack and they were goodyears most extreme summer tire at the time but still fairly safe in the wet. Well I only had those on for 400 miles because they wouldnt hookup for jack in first second or third. So i decided to take them off and not worry about hydroplaning so much and I slapped on some 315 nitto drag radials which I found were perfect for my power level and they simply hooked when heated up. Well this summer I switched over to 18 inch saleen reps with 18x10.5 in back, so I decided to go back to a non-drag radial tire again. I went with hankook Ventus V12 evo k110 295/30/18 and I couldnt be happier. I can launch the car fairly clean with these tires with some wheel spin but even if i just drop the hammer they spin but then they hook very well even though i'm giving the throttle the lead foot. They will spin to the top of second and then hook even with the hammer down trying to burn out purposly. I used to spin in third with the 315 goodyears. I think for the money these ventus v12's are amazing. They seem to be inbetween the performance of a good drag radial and regular street tire. I payed a little over 200 bucks for each tire, and when you compare that to the 350 bucks a piece for the goodyears, the hankooks are a real value. Just wanted to throw that little bit of info for you. I've found that a super expensive street tire doesnt necessarily mean good performance. Some food for thought before you go buying those uber expensive michelins. [/QUOTE]
