Hankook V12 Evo2 finally here

[royalnkm]

Yeap, been using it for over 3yrs now but the front is practically destroyed now with only like 10% tread left in the middle while the shoulder treads are gone already. The rear still got maybe 20-25% left.

Wow...u r so brave...I Normaly will change my tire when my tread left around half mm from the warning line or reach the warning line...
Ur shoulder treads Are gone already mean not enough grip already?especially at rainy day...
Front tire will "eat" both in and out shoulder tread and rear will "eat" middle tread

The front middle treads still just like 0.5mm above the minimum tread indicator while the shoulders are all slicks already. My rears are still like 1mm above the tread indicator and they're all even across from both shoulders to middle.

Yeah, during heavy rain it's already floating even at just 70-80kph. But if just wet without any standing patches of water, then it's still not too bad doing 110-120kph.

Ic...but for my size also few Uhp tire only

At least still have....

Yeah the front looks like semi slicks already. Rear still not too bad.

Not sure yet what will be the next tires. Some of my options are
PS3
V12 Evo2
RE003
CSC5 (but this one highly unlikely cost it's just much more expensive than the rest)
Maybe even GT Radial HPY.

I might also do a mix of the above.

Wah! like Pirelli P Zero system, Directional front and Asymmetric rears.....

Hahaha, yeah, maybe V12 Evo2 front and RE003 rear. But need to wait for the size on the V12 Evo2.

If front is directional rear is asymmetric is better?

Gt radial HPY seems not bad,a lot good review too....but don't its Fc how?
Now I considor re003,F1D5,and V12 evo2(next week will Go tire shop check for spec)

Re003 and F1D5 which 1 is better?

Me too..wait for the size of V12 evo2

Not really, many style and design. Like they say directional better in wet, but after some test nowadays asymmetric can match their track time, means almost equal. They say Asymmetric corners better because more rubber at outer shoulder, likewise directional also match their track time.
The front directional and rear asymmetric was another design. Directional front clear water for asymmetric rear but if they are equal no difference, right?
Moreover if you use this method, you cannot rotate the tyres.....lol

GT Radial HPY don't have your size, Maybe HPX but then nowadays HPX many sizes don't have as they replace with BAX2 already.....

Thinking of 2 F1-D5 front and 2 RE-003 rears?.....hhahhahahahhahahahhah

Icic..that will be s weird setup for me...for I think just front and rear tire size different only suitable to use like this...hahaha
I will use both 4 same tyre...
I very like V12 evo2...Hankook claim that improve noise level and also rolling resistance

...

Re003 and F1D5 which 1 is better?

...

Don't know yet. RE003 is newer and so far based on some comparison tests I've read seems to be better than many popular UHP tires like PS3 & CSC5. I suspect it will be better in the dry than the F1-D5 but not sure in the wet. It would not last as long though.

Yalo..the only problem is wear too fast

But RE-002 traction rating still A as in RE-001 and RE-002.....probably suppose to be in this category

 

[royalnkm]

Will Dunlop direzza dz102 super noisy?

Premium touring summer and high performance all season which 1 better?

Yeah, that's my main concern that maybe the wet grip and braking might not be as good. But I noticed also most BS tires are rated just A traction only, right?

Nope the higher up ones are AA if not mistaken, RE-S001, RE-050, S-04 pole position

Touring summer also mid range only, but never get BS Sporty Style MY-02, those are style only.....hahhahaha

Means high performance are better than touring?
Yaya...I know the tyre not good need wet and dry and also very noisy

Yup, if want performance don't get touring category....
