I read up these tires are best bang for the buck for all seasons. Since my summer tires could only last me a little over a year, I figure I should get all season which would be much comfortable and quieter compared to the summer tires that's how I got the toyos. Seeing good reviews from consumers so it had me. But the only thing I don't like about the proxes 4 is the sidewall is soft. Are the hankooks' sidewall soft?? How much psi are u running?

But this thread is about the Hankook V12's, so please lets not derail.

Just put on a full set even ordered it from tirerack. 225 35/19 n 235/3519 so cat they sound quieter then my dun lop sport maxx in the same sizes. Traction feels. Haven't driven them in rain yet. Tires are easy to stretch as they are on x 9 n x10 wide. Pretty happy so far

DITTO to what others have said.
I just mounted a set as well. Went with 245/35/20 and 275/30/20. Love the feel so far. I will provide feedback once I pass the 5000 mile threshold.
I was also went to a Lexus Meet over the weekend and I noticed a lot of the show cars' tires of choice were these hankooks as well.

I need to add a note on the balancing.
Both my 17in Bridgestone's and 19in General's need excessive amounts of weights to balance and both still vibrated at certain speeds (2GS issue). These balanced with very little weight and so far no noticeable vibration.

Got a set this week, running 225/35/19 and 255/35/19. I also noticed these are the exact same tires that the Hankook drift cars use. Very nice set of tires for a decent price.

I had them installed late yesterday on my Mercedes C300. I checked/adjusted tire pressures in my garage first thing this morning. I will give them 100 miles or so of break-in before I test them further. So far they run perfectly smooth at 80mph, perfect balancing.
