best TIRE - Hankook v12 v Kuhmo XS v Wide Oval v falken 452 v Falken 615
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
priority is steering response and dry grip, have great suspension mods and carving mountain roads is a my passion. ive tried star specs , so3, sport maxx, gsd3, etc. average 7-8kmiles per set, unfortunately, i have an ill family member with significant medical bills, so must scale back to $100 per tire category, hopefully, down the road re11 or yoko a08 will find a way onto the sled. thanx , mike

ran falken fk452 for my rears for just about 10k miles, and they're now shot. i'm lowered on h&r's, drive on LA roads, and like to drive aggressively, especially around the corners.
they're not great at all in the rain, even when i had tread. the esp light goes off all the time lol
i'm in the market for new tires actually...leaning towards the goodyear eagle f1's...
other inputs?

As for the OP.. I'd give the Hankooks a try.
