Just bought a set of four of these Hankook tyres to replace my highly rated BF Goodrich Profiler ones, which I was very happy with. Just on first impressions I am very well satisfied and found them even better than the BF Goodrich tyres. I was pleasantly surprised that although the new tyres have a lower profile, they seem to absorb bumps better and grip is excellent. I have only driven on dry roads so can't accurately comment on wet driving as I've just got them, I also can't comment on wear so will be updating the review later. Price wise they were cheaper than leading brands but not very cheap either at £95 each, however, I think they are very good value for money and would highly recommend them.

Had these fitted to the front of my Civic Type R to replace some very badly worn Toyo Proxes T1-R.
Initial impressions are very good, excellent grip in the wet and even better in the dry.
Comfort and road noise are reasonable for the size of the tyre and the feedback is very good.
Can’t really comment on the wear rates so I will report back once these near the end of their life to see if I’m as impressed with them.
So far so good, thumbs up for me and I would recommend these tyres!

Almost immediately after I bought the car new, I replaced the original-equipment Dunlop SP Sport 2050 with this. I was especially eager to replace the 2050s after they tried to kill me on a winding road in western Saudi Arabia I drive twice every weekend and know by heart. The Hankooks made a world of difference. They could use a little more road feel and directional stability (my car has electric power steering, as opposed to hydraulic on my older 2005 Mazda 6 2.3), but these tyres are exceptional in performance. I use on a 1,200-mile round trip every single weekend, rain or shine (more shine than rain in Saudi Arabia), and the Hankooks never missed a beat. So far so good. Also, like almost all summer tires I used, they seem to perform better the hotter the weather is. I noticed that below about 24 degrees Celsius, they tend to get disinterested - almost plasticky, with reduced grip and responsiveness. In 40+ weather, though, they're as sticky as chewing gum. In terms of value for money, they just can't be beaten.

I found this tyre to be extremely good at holding the road even under hard cornering/acceleration. I found no perceived difference when the road was wet, other than a slightly earlier break in traction (minimal).

Excellent value for money. A good all round tyre of which i will not hesitate to buy again.

The V12evo is quiet performer (low interior noise), but not a soft one: You'll feel the scars on the blacktop. I am not the kind of driver to deliver a proper judgement on how sporty a tire is (at least not with a Lexus LS dinosaur). If I say the V12evo is not responsive, it might as well be the car.
The rubber wears down pretty fast, even for someone going leisurely.
And then the eternal Hankook problem: The tires rumble after a short (or long) rest, and get quiet only after some miles of driving. Obviously the spot the car's weight rests on develop a kind of flatness.
In my view it's a mediorcre product at an adequate price. If someone could convince me a Dunlop, Conti or Michelin last longer (for what they cost more) and are more comfortable, I would drop the Hankooks. Otherwise I'll rebuy them.

It proved to be very good tyre for the price I paid (£85 incl. fitting).
Excellent grip on both dry and wet roads . Good grip when cornering and breaking.
It needs a couple of miles to warm up then the ride is quiet and comfortable . I'd dare to compare it to top brands tyres.
