Hankook RS2 Tyres? Anyone tried them?

[MackemPete]

They seem to be a budget trackday tyre that offer better grip than normal road tyres but just short of R888 levels of grip. On the flip side they are supposed to be better in the rain than the R888's.

How much are they?

They are supposed to be good. On par with Eagle F1's and cheaper. They used to be called v12 evo's i think.

I think the RS2 z212 is an evolution of the 211 which is rated R and not road legal? I think thats what r means anyway. I'm doing a bit more digging now. Doesnt the guy who runs camskills post on here? Might be worth asking him as £100 a corner semi track day tryes is a bargin in anyones book!

They look good, especially if you don't often use the car in the wet.

I have just ordered some of these for the front....

I have some unused SO-2's for the rear so it will be interesting to see how the two different tyres drive together.
