I have elected to try Hankook Ventus V12 - 245/35/21
UpDate on the tires, my car came equipped with the continentals,
after rotating them at reasonable numbers.
I have found my tires excessively worn on the inside.
Which generates harsh edges that catch on the freeway grooves.
The car was very noisy with tire noise and being pulled right to left
whenever the road had grooves.
I have become aware of this significant camber settings,
that this car carries to improve its oversteer rating.
The problem is if people don't get to the service center
and rotate the tires, they will have blowouts at about 6000 miles
they won't see coming.
Because the outside of the tires look great.
My car is a P85 21 inch rims.
I have elected to try Hankook Ventus V12 - 245/35/21
To improve the freeway stability of my vehicle.
Based on its tread design.
So far it's working these tires are definitely softer,
and I don't throw the car around in the canyons.
I drive it as a luxury car that's fun to drive.
I can share with you at 75 miles an hour there is a little extra noise
either wind in the tread or road surface.
So far it's actually a good thing it gives you some speed awareness.
My keep your record intact a little longer
I drove a loaner car set up the same as mine while the service was being done.
It sure drove harsh compared to my car even before the tire change.
I was lucky enough to drive my car on a set of 19" for a few days
and that also generated a harsher ride in the 21
I will keep you informed as to how the Hankook Ventus V12 - 245/35/21
behave on this car when being driven by a moderate enthusiast.
I have pressed to the petal all the way down starting in a slight curve.
And there is a difference between the continentals and Hankook Ventus V12,
My car spends 99.8 percent of its time in a cruise configuration.
So so far I'm very happy have not seen a change in rolling resistance based on new tires.
Because the service center also added a lot more tow in to my car
during this tire change. Averaging 309 watts per mile mostly fast freeway driving.
I'd love to see a little softening in the camber numbers so the tires will have a chance
I'm getting reasonable life.
