Hankooks V12 > Michelin PS2

Cheaper too.
Which is why they're what I pick for bang/buck.
Now, best tire regardless of $ is Michelin but not the PS2, the PSS (Pilot Super Sport)

Michelin Pilot Super Sports - quiet, comfortable, great handling tire. I've had these for a few months on my 19' wheels, loving them so far.
Bridgestone Potenza RE760 - good durable tire and one of the better priced Bridgestone tires with good tread life.
I have these on my OEM 18'.

Best bang def goes to the Hankooks. Also, Conti DW aren't too far off from the Hankook price range. Things I'm pretty sure are cheaper goes to the Kumho and Nexen. Heard good and bad things from the Nexen but dunno much about the Kumho.
I'm currently riding on Potenza RE050A (came with the wheels) and going to jump on the Hankooks when it is time.

I've still got my stock Bridgestone Potenza's RE050 , damn the thread doesn't seem to wear off soon enough or maybe I'm not driving my car harder enough. I Would prefer the Kumho Ecsta next. Heard pretty good reviews on this brand and their tires. Hankooks are also no that bad.
