[s-cars] tire opinions

[Kevin Barnett]

I am with Kevin here.  I have been running Hankook
Ventus Sport K104's for 3 years now. (on second set).

Average 15-18k miles per set.  (Asheville pavement is
tough on tires).

Good stick.  Progressive at limit.  Give plenty of
warning.  Cheap. (in 235/40/17)  Easy to live with.

Best regards,
Kevin Barnett
