Hankook Ventus RS-3

Hey guys,

Can I get personal feedback if anyone is running these tyres. Seen them today on a WRX and they look great but how do they tick all the other criteria of a tyre.

Im interested in these for my RB but the last time I inquired, they were near impossible to get in the size I want.

I have the older RS2 on the wife's RX GenIII and, apart from being a bit noisy, they have been great. Good grip wet and dry and I was pleasantly surprised at the wear for this type of tyre.

If the RS3's are just as good, I'll be happy.

Excellent grip when it's dry. Average in the wet. Nice stiff sidewalls and decent tread wear for its grip levels. Highly recommended if AD08Rs weren't on sale at the moment 8)

I have to make up my mind over the next few days.
Here is a few of the tyres I have look at.

Hankook RS3
Advan AD08R
Falken Azenis RT615K
Dunlop RT
Michelin Super Sport
ContiSports

I wish it was easier to choose. LOL

Noiser than an S001. Quieter than a cheap hybrid tyre such as Achilles 123s, hankook rs3 etc, but will out grip any other street legal tyre wet or dry.
