agreed... mostly. i went with the Hankook V12s for my first replacements solely due to cost. they are not quite on par with the stockers perfomance-wise, but they were about $100.00 a piece cheaper than the stock Potenzas.

they ride way more quiet than the Potenzas, but i can definitely tell a difference in performance when pushing the car. for now, the price difference was worth a small drop in perfomormance but for the next set i think i will try something different. no other way to find the perfect set for your specific needs.
