Love my Hankook Ventus V12's on my 01 TR Z51 Vert. However, they have only been on the car for 2 weeks. I exercised them this weekend and really like them. I have much better "feel" of the road vs. my oem Goodyears, which are as hard as stones.
Go for it, especially since you have already been living without Runcraps. Very big bang for the buck: just over $500 for all 4, w $60 TireRack rebate still going on.
Go to "Wheel & Tire" section on Corvette Forum. Give Luke a call at TireRack x362.

I just bought a set for my car and love them. The tires they replaced were Toyos and really shot so that may play some part in it but you can't beat the price
I thought about Michelin runflats but cheaped out. The ride is really good and stable. No more skipping across those expansion joints on the highway

i need tires also, and checked out those hancocks, they have good reviews, also looking at the michelin sports run flats, hancocks are $528, and the michelins $858 and 44.00 shipping, discount tire is a little more, but no shipping. can't decide, I notice a lot of guys complain about the run flats

Can't give you any feedback yet, but I do have a set of the Hankooks waiting to be put on my car. Bought them due to good reviews by other forum members.
