K107's ftw. They are a great all round tyre. Done a small amount of track work with them, and they are quite grippy for a street tyre in both the wet and dry.

Aldo, Anthony and the boys at Swan Tyres will look after you well.

Thanks for the feedback guys!

It's a bloody tough choice between the Potenzas and K107s.
Has anyone been running the K107's long enough to know what the wear is like?
That may be the deciding factor!

20 000km and still going strong

have the k107's for about 5,500km... they get a decent hammering and no real noticable wear... 235 is a very good price!!!
Great performer, road noise is minimal.

What's the treadwear rating of the 050? From memory the k107 is 240

I found the K107s to be a great all-rounder.

Don't forget there's a difference between RE050 and RE050A...

ive been running the k107's that aldo fitted for me at swans and i dont think id by another tyre

I ran the K107's for a little while then sold them wasn't a huge fan, they aren't a bad tyre though. Personally you can't beat the Falken RT615s but out of the choices you have given I would go the RE050's.

365hp and 515nm

New Beast to arrive April 2015 - 365hp, 450nm, 0-100 in 4.4sec. AMG Goodness!

EVO- S1...are these same as K107?.... if so have had them for 35,000.
They seem fine...

I just checked and the treadwear rating of the RE050 is 140 as opposed to the K107's 240 (stated as 280 on tirerack.com) which is a pretty dramatic difference - I'm leaning toward the K107s.....

Yep - Hankook Ventus S1evo K107. 35,000km is great to hear!

um....

def K107 FTW, i pay about $300 fitted and balanced,s o $230ish is kick arse....

i've been running them for about 3 years now, happy as a pig in shit with them, they really do the job, wet, dry, track, whatever...

i only get about 15,000km's out of them though, hard driving most of the time.

problems i've had:

*The corner wear can be excessive because the side walls aren't super strong, both inside and outside corners ( inside if you have with heavy camber)

*got them too hot once and had pattern deformation (i was trying pretty hard mind you)

*when they start to wear (for me at about the 15,000k point), they still have a few 1000 kays on them, but they tend to get a little slidey

BUT, even after the high price, shit life and problems, they perform that well in ALL conditions i wouldn't risk anything else.

end rant
