235/30 19 Tyre Review Highlights

Hankook Ventus S1 evo 3 rated 69% while driving a Volkswagen Mk8 GTI
Driving on mostly town for 21000 spirited miles
So far, I love this tire. I think it has fairly decent dry grip, especially near end of life as the tread has worn down and it gets closer to slick. I haven't tracked the tire, so no extreme heat, but it breaks traction fairly slowly and is predictable near the limit. The tire has also worn well, 20k out of a tire like this given my driving style is fairly impressive. It grips up progressively after a slide, so no snappiness. I do wish it had more feel in the steering though, however I can't tell if thats the racks fault or the tires fault given that this is my first set of tires on the car. I would get again, but keep in mind the prices are fairly close to a Pilot Super Sport (Star BMW) or a Pilot Super Sport 4S, and that tire is probably a better performer in every regard and lasts approximately as long as the Hankook.

Michelin CrossClimate 2 rated 94% while driving a Saab Automobile 9 3 Aero 2.8 V6 convertible
Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 spirited miles
Excellent tyres, good-ish wet grip, the only problem I experienced with them in the wet, was pulling off at traffic lights, wheel spun a few times, it happen once on a dry day. I feel confident with them on my car, in the rain or ice conditions, definitely not frightened on the motorway in the wet. I'm using them with 20mm spacers, and they do look good. I had them on the front axle of my winter tyres, my summer tyres are have them on all 4 corners, I haven't really checked the fuel efficiency, I always use E5
They are quiet, no need to turn up my head unit, to block out the noise, even though I do like my music a bit louder than normal (anyway the music blocks out the tinnitus)
They are £145 a corner (that's the cheapest I found them) but they are worth every penny, give them a try
