Time for new tires and can't decide which of these 2 to go with. I know Car & Driver placed the V12 in 2nd place, and the Invo in 8th place in their tire test.

I'm kind of leaning towards the V12, but am curious what everyone's opinions are.

Thanks for any input

The Hankooks are awesome. I have had mine on my car for about 2 months now and am very satisfied with them. You will find many positive reviews on this forum for the V12's.

thanks for the input everyone.....so far, it looks like the Hankooks. Can't wait to get rid of the RFT's.....I've got about 30-35k miles on them now, and they are really starting to drone now going down the freeway
