Ditto, hankook v12s are crap.
Had one blow out back to back 2 days apart.
Call Hankook, all the performance tires have a warranty of the the first 25% of usually tread wear. Had gotten them to pay for 1 tire since I kept getting blow outs.
Btw I called corporate in NJ, I got a tires for just the sales tax on the pro rated part.
Only cost me like $5, good luck with your fix.
Also it's supposed to only cover sidewall profile of 40 or bigger, I was running 35s.
They covered it after I told them I would blast them on car forum.
Guess they took my word after all.

I sent the e-mail last night and got a reply from Hankook first thing this morning with instructions to take my G to America's Tire Company for a tire inspection. After the inspection the technician will call Hankook with the inspection report.......I guess we'll go from there.
