Hankook RS4 on 996: Noise & size
Hi everyone, i'm a new member here and I bought a C4 996 1 year ago.
I'm about to buy Hankook rs4 to put on 18'' stock Wheel and i'm wondering if anybody here tried this tire on a 996, are they kind of very ''nosy'' tire? (Sorry for my English; french guy here
). I will do a couple of (hot) laps this summer and I want to put the best size without rubbing;
285/35-18 rear and 245/40-18 will be okay?
Thanks !!

I have good luck with Hankook tires on my Maserati, much better than the Pirelli in my opinion and they last longer. I don't have experience with them (or the proper size) on a 996, but it will be between Hankook and Sumitomo when my 928 GT needs new tires.
I suggest you re-ask the question in the 996 technical forum, you get a response from 996 guys.
