Question Hankook Ventus V4 ES H105 tires any good?

Hi guys,

I need to replace all the tires on my 2003 GS430. I live in NY and I need All Season tires. Im thinking about getting the Hankook Ventus V4 ES H105 tires. Has anyone tried Hankook Ventus V4 ES H105 tires on their GS and how is their quality? Is there a lot of road noise and how is the wear on them?

I know you guys will say not to go cheap with tires and I understand why but I need replacement tires for now and I also plan on upgrading to 19" or 20" rims in a year or so. My car is used manly as a baby land yacht and it is not modded for extra performance. I also do not drive the car far or a lot. My average round trip is less than 10 miles and local roads. I may also travel 150 highway miles once every other month to visit family.

I checked Tirerack but there are no reviews from a Lexus or a similar tire size.
Any additional info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time and help.

Jim

I am running Hankook Ventus Evo V12 and I like them. I think they are a summer only version so they may not be suitable for winter.

If you want cheap I have also used General Exclaim UHP 17" which is all-season. I only used them for about six months before I switched to the Hankook 18" tire. I found both tires to have a good quiet and smooth ride.

Previously I had Dunlop sp9000 which I found to be noisy and harsh.

I have a GS4.
