Hankook RS2 Reviews?

Has anyone ran the new Hankook Ventur RS2? What are your opinions of them?

For street I really like them. I've had them for about two months now. No road noise, good grip, and super cheap. I'll buy them again. I hear they don't do too bad on the (dry) track either.

Here's what I'm running;
7s - Hankook Ventus RS-2 Z212 205/55 ZR16 91W
9s - Hankook Ventus RS-2 Z212 245/45 ZR16 94W
Alignment and corner balance after tires where mounted.

I have a set on my 1976 since the summer. They seems to have good grip and have a nice thread pattern. When I was buying, it was between the Kumho MX, Falken Azenis, and the Hankook RS2s. I also read an article in car and driver that recommended them. For the money, I think the are a good buy.

I have the Hankooks now. I prefer Kuhmo MX's. The Hankooks are a nice street tire, but the MXs hold up better on the track. The RS2s need a bit more PSI, get greasy quiker, and chunk a bit more, than the MXs. And the MXs only cost a bit more.
