Picked up a pair of used Hankook Ventus V12 Evo tires in 275/40/18 today. Bye bye, my precious Michelins. Those were some fantastic tires. Literally have just driven home on them (still managed a little slideways time) and I gotta say, its nice to know I have some tread back under me. The old tires were so worn they were beginning to sound like an old basketball when you tapped the tread. Now, I've never handbraked other than to park the car, but upon removal and finally getting to see all of both tires at once, it sure as hell is weird that with the stock diff, the left tire had a big ol' patch of threads exposed, while whatever was on the right that was exposed, pretty much ran the circumference due to the right tire fire syndrome of an open diff.
I don't think the car has ever had it's speedo recalc'd for the tire size changes. What kind of scan tools/programmers might allow me to do this?
BTW, $120 for two used tires with >60% life remaining, installed. Good deal?
