I like the hankooks v12.. on my second set now. I was only able to get 40K miles or so on the first set not sure if that's normal. I have an ever so slight negative camber and my rear inner tread started to wear out fast. I couldn't rotate since I am staggered. when they are new they ride like butter.. unfortunately that same feel doesn't last through out it's lifespan. The experience is still good though, that is why I bought a second set.

Don't get the nankangs on a car like this. i run the ns-2 on my accord coupe 4-cyl and when it's rainy you can feel how early they lead to understeer.
I can recommend the hankook, either the v12 or the s1's.

The Nankangs ride terribly. Had a new set that were on a set of wheels I purchased.
My alignment was recent on the car, and I always had my pressures checked/appropriate.
They were noisy. The handling in the wet was nervous and, there isn't a better way to put it but 'squishy'. The connection to the road was poor. The only thing that they had going for them was the fact that they didn't wobble. Went right back to my tried and true Continental Extreme Contact DW. Quality tires make the car. The Nankangs were on for about a month before I swapped them out. Never again.

there 245/35/20 and 270/30/20 falken fk452
They came with the car when I purchased them, thinking I was going to get a quiter ride, because the falken is a directional tire.
I purchased a set of DWS and there wasnt much of a big difference, falken actually rode smoother

Nanking is a cheaper/ bargain brand.....think about it. It's cheap for a reason, either loud and/ or lack of performance. It's all subjective to the person running them. I bought the old ns2 when people said they were good and guess what..... I HATED them!
