$812 Hankook V12EVO 245/40/19& 275/35/19?

Ok is this a good price 245/40/19 is $183 each, and 275/35/19 is $ $217 each plus $12 for Valve Stems? I'm looking into the 245/40 front & 275/35 back combo. Oh yeah, If purchased by 6/30/10 you get $50 back from Hankook.

Will I love or hate these tires. I was looking at the falken 452 but these seem better.

Wondering the same thing. Really want to know how the wear is. I've heard good things about S drives, but these seem very comparable. Only gripe is that they don't have the fronts in the stock spec. Closest thing is 225.40.19, which I guess would work anyway.

Try calling around for better pricing. You can get them much cheaper than that. I was quoted $600 for 4 245/40/19's mounted & installed.

This is in Cali tho.

Haha BB fails.

So for everyone who got the 245/275 setup, how's the extra width feel? I notice there's no stock sizes for the V12's...

I've gotten quotes from 2 different tire installers. They both said $130 for mounting and balancing for 245/40/19. Does that seem right? I dunno how you guys are getting these tires for $600 or $640 installed. The cheapest I was able to find these tires was:
