thanks
The size of the tire is 225/45R17
They are Hankook Ventus Z212 R-S2
They will be available very soon ( hopefully sometime next year)
You need to email Hankook Tire Corp. (www.hankooktireusa.com)
with all your questions as I do not have any accurate info on release dates.

They have a treadwear rating of 200.
Ive had them on for about 4 months.
No track time yet, but used them in the rain/wet surfaces and the wet traction is superb~!!!
When they heat up, which is pretty quick, they stick prett well!
When they come out, give them a try, you won't be disappointed....

some sites say it clears brembos.... but im leaning towards no, unless you get wider and/or lower offset.

i am running the same rims on my02, have you figured out what kind of calipers you are leaning towards since you said brembos probably will not clear...stoptech? cobb? rotora?
