Follow Up to Hankook R-S2 Tires

5:59 pm Tires

I found this picture recently and figured I’d follow up on the Hankook R-S2′s that I had on my s2000. They were really good tires for the price, but I didn’t get much life out of them. About 12,000 miles after I put them on, they were looking like this:

I ran 37lbs of pressure in them so they weren’t over inflated, but they were pretty squirly on anything but perfectly drive pavement at this point.

I replaced them with Sumitomo HTR Z III tires and so far am loving them. They were also really cheap and so far are showing very even and slow wear. I’ll follow up on them as I get more use out of them

    what did you expect from an ultra high performance summer tire? The stickier the tire more it will wear out faster.
