I think Michelin PSS is the best of that group from what I've heard. Also the most exp. But you may want some more opinions, and you also might want to post this in the Wheels/Tires section.

I've got hankook v12 and love em. I think theyre great tires and since we all burn through them anyways no need to spend extra. best bang for the buck in my opinion.

I have Hankook V12s and they're great, I've heard a lot of good things from the PSS also.

I just recently changed all four of my tires to Hankook V12 and i'm happy, barely any road noise, good summer tires, and way better than my old tires which were Falken 452's.

I am in the exact same situation right now. My rear drivers side caught a nail and ripped open. I have Invos all around and didn't plan to change brand. However all Invos in 285/25/20 are on backorder. No one seems to have this damn tire anywhere.

So I will be changing both rears as well since Nitto's are out of the question. I guess tire prices in Canada are drastically higher because I paid $300 a tire. Dont know how the shop wants 1040 for only two. Had my buddy get me a quote on all different brands so I'll be deciding this week. Good luck
