A little off topic, but I just switched my worn out Hankook V12s for Continental DWs a few weeks ago. The are 285/35/R18 at the rear and 265/35/R18 up front. So far, after 650 miles, I have been really impressed with their wet and dry grip despite being a harder compound (340).

The only odd thing is that the tread is asymmetric, so the tread sipes on the right point the opposite direction to the sipes on the left. I haven't detected any strange handling in the wet or dry with driving or heavy braking, so it seems alright from a handling standpoint. I checked in with TireRack and they kind of confirmed that the tires were installed correctly.
