I just did that research for my '11 G37S sedan. I purchased the Hankook Ventus S1 Noble2 based on the Tire Rack reviews. The Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 and Contis were in the last ones I eliminated. I dropped the Michelin because several of the reviews said they are NOT so good in the snow. They've only been on the car since Monday, so can't help you with more info yet - way too early in the break in period - so far though I like them. The Hankooks are a hundred bucks cheaper than the Michelins too, but that wouldn't have been a factor in my decision (nice bonus though).lockon wrote:

I've had mixed luck with Hankooks. The Ventus V12 summer tires were fine on my coupe but seemed to have somewhat less traction than my super sports (dry and wet). I had Ventus V4's on my G sedan as the first replacement tires and they were simply crap as a all-season.Starter wrote:Update on the Hankooks. Just over 500 miles now and the tires ride smoothly and reasonably quietly; handling is good (haven't pushed hard yet, too much snow and rain); braking is almost as good as the oem Bridgestone summers; Way too early to judge wear. I'm very happy with the purchase - thanks Tire Rack.
Paul Moorcones (Radial's owner) is a good guy, a racer himself and you usually get good deals through him. I've bought tires there myself. I'm nearer to Baltimore now and, by the time I could have gone there, it was just easier to get them through Tire Rack.lockon wrote:They should be at the Radial Tire Company in Silver Spring tomorrow. FYI in case you live in Maryland or Virginia, they are cheaper out the door than Tire Rack!
