the Hankook is probably better than the goodyears that came on it. ford even uses them on new cars today.

Most performance tires today are better than the original Goodyears. That "Gatorback" technology has long since been improved upon.

Vin - How are the repairs coming on your ride?

Hey Vin,

I don't know if you will be interested but, I am planning on taking my rims in to get powder coated next week. I have to have the tires removed prior to dropping them off. Tires are 245/45 zr17 99w Hankook Ventus. They are used. I ordered a new set of Nitto NT555 extreme tires that I will install on my fresh rims. I was going to throw the Hankooks away, but if you are interested, I could keep them. I would let you have them free of charge, you just pay shipping. Let me know if you want some pics, so you can see if they are worth the shipping costs. I could save them all or just one. good luck Vin. :beer:

Thanks man, I appreciate the offer, but I found a used Hankook tire at the local tire shop, it doesn't match the other three, but it'll do for now

Thanks, they're not the best tire on the market, but for the $$, they are hard to beat. I'm sure I will like them, especially with all of the good reviews around here. :beer:

Agreed. They're a great tire for the $$. However, when mine need replacing I'll be getting a set of Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires.

Those are a little out of my price range, but a very nice tire indeed. :burnout:
