Bought Hankooks Ventus tires!

Hey guys i know the recommended psi for stock tires (goodyears) are 32psi but what about the hankooks ventus? What are some opinions as far as performance on these tires? I trying to look for a nice balance of performance and wear?

I run mine at 32 psi and they wear fine. They hook up pretty good for a street tire, but my truck is basically stock.

They wear amazingly! But I disagree about hooking up well. If I stomp it anywhere below 20 MPH, they go up in smoke.

I've almost lost a few stoplight races because I have to pedal it so bad.

When I said they hook up pretty well for street tires I forgot to mention that my truck is lowered with Hotchkiss Performance suspension parts and Lakewood traction bars. I have never run them with stock suspension, just a stock engine.

i believe mine are at right around 34.5-35psi...and i havent had any warm weather yet to see them hook in the warm, they do good in the snow and rain for me here when i get that weather, even ice, and im puttin down 400+rwhp and 450+rwhp, its all in how u drive i guess, i try to stay outta boost when its snow or ice lol...and when its cold for that matter...

$137 a piece and probably about $10 shipping for one tire to your location..
So about $147 delivered to your door in Los Angeles.
