ADV.1 wheels are cool. There is an oke here at my office that has a set of 20inch ADV 7.1 on his E92 M3.

Question? why Hankooks and not Michelin Pilot sport Cups?

impractical all round tyre???

Not really, performance tyre for a perfromance car. I was in the same situation a few months ago when I fitted my wheels. I could have saved a few grand and went for cheaper tyres but I believe that a performance car needs performance tyres. Nothing wrong with the Hankooks btw.

I think Andrew has the same set of ADV.1s on his X6M:thumbs:

Thanks guys for the comments.

Went with Hankooks because I wanted to try them out, heard/read some good reviews about them and the dealers recommended them... Also the price was a factor.

I think Andrew got the 7.1 with forged and customer offset, mine are the flowspec...

tcal69,

I think the Hankooks are decent...

The back end hardly slipped - Then again you got 295s...

And In my opinion the ride quality was better than my Bridgestone RE050a runflat 19s!

Cheers,
Sacheh

Those hankook ventus v12 tyres have received very good reviews overseas.
Problem is that I can't find size 255/30/20 here in RSA...

Is it, maybe ask Tiger wheels and tires in Sandton City. I asked Alan the branch manager and he said they got those tires in stock:dunno:
