  1. #1) What tire are you offering for review (size, model, type (summer, A/s, winter, race, etc), price paid, miles driven on tires, etc): 225/45/17 Summer Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110 \ $110 each(and 80 dollar rebate) \ 10k miles #2) What is your geographic location: Upstate Ny (Albany) #3) What types of driving events if any (Track, AutoX, Commute , etc): Commute/Spirited Driving #4) Percent of highway vs. city driving: 40/50 #5) Tires used previously: Re92, Kumho Asx, Bridgestone re050a, dunlop wintersport m3, continental DWS, general exclaim UHP's, toyo proxies 4, hankook ventus v4 #6) Your review and personal comments (Dry, wet, and snow, if applicable. Also, please compare to other tires used): Bought these in the beginning of the summer. The first thing I noticed is that they are not as sticky as the re050a's. They are noticeably softer on the side walls so they allow flexing. Once you get the feel for these tires is when they really shine. They give up grip predictably(if that makes sense). What I mean by this is while taking long sweeping turns you can literally drift the car around the corner. This is not a tire that makes you feel like you are riding on rails. So if your looking for one of those look else where. On heavy downpours which we have had a few of were handled very well. No hydroplaning(60-70mph) which is very good in my book. Would I buy these again? Maybe, if I just wanted a fun/economic tire to roll around in. If I wanted a true performance tire I would prob look else where(re070's or ventus r-s3's). I gotta say though I might just get the continental dws for all season use again since I also feel their grip was on par to these summers and still were able to handle snow.
  2. Updated your post, didn't link profiles cause I am at work and the boss wouldn't like me doing that all day Also made it sticky. Thx again to you and tori for the effort!
  3. Wow I am still amazed after all this time you have kept on this. I love your setup, and wish you so much luck on this one man. I know most people consider it bunk but have you tried a grounding kit? Or a DIY grounding kit? Have you kept any or all of the stock grounds?
  4. Jeff... wtf where have you been? Yeah i know me a mod, it must have been for my lack of painted stock calipers.... I am glad to see your still alive man!
  5. Thanks George...that thread can be the wild wild west sometimes.
  6. what dumbass made you a mod?
  7. Its threads like this that make me glad to be a part of this community! That is an impressive job you did there!
  8. Fyi, I also have this seat squeak on my spec b. I have never had this issue with my previous 05 and 06 lgts'. So this is a new problem to me at least. I have had this issue since about 29k miles which is approx the moment i went stage 2. I have taken the seat off from its rails and adjusted them with no success. I am going to try to remove the seat frame this summer and try putting some neoprene rubber or something to see if it solves the issue. If not...anyone know if sparco road/tuner seats fit in our lgt's?
  9. Arc, did you have any rock chips and scratches before the vinyl? If so do they show up after you applied the film? This is a project I am planning to undertake after the winter so I could stop seeing my rock chips. Also I love matte black your car looks sick.
  10. You mean i can't keep the engine cover?! I sent you a pm!
  11. Hey George,

    Wassup bro?

    Just wondering if you think there might be any chance of getting my engine cover back before all the polar ice caps melt and Connecticut ends up on the ocean floor.

    Just wondering...
