Does anyone know or ever heard of Hankook? The package I want to buy for the zr1s are either Sumitomo for $829 or Hankook (130mph) for $729.. and then there's the 180mph Hankook for $769. Since my v6 won't be going anywhere near 130, I figure those tires will work well. I'm definitely going to just get the Hankook tires for $729, but if anyone's heard of them I'd feel atleast more comfortable about it.

I've heard of Hankook, not too sure I would put them on my car.. but hey, tires are tires. You gettin them off eBay?

meissen

Yeah, $729 plus $160 S&H for the zr1 rims with 275 Hankook tires on them.

i know i'm referring to josh, that is if he plans on racing the vette to reach his top speed.

The rateing just means that you can run that speed for a long period of time. I don't think the tires would fall apart if you went above their limit if it was only for a short period of time. Plus their are not many places where you can go 150+.

black with polished lip.

I've heard of them, but that's about all I can say. I'd say they'd be fine for your car.

they are a cheap tire not too bad, kinda like the douglas line from wal mart or cooper noisy and wear poorly

I talked to a few other people, one person said his friend has it on his Mustang and it sticks really good, even on ice. I guess I'm going to go with those, when I need to change tires then I can get something good but $900 for wheel and tire combo is too good of a deal to pass by.

"Ultra High Performance Summer"

For some reason, that doesn't seem like a smart tire for me to purchase.
