Hankook is now involved with SCCA and have a track tire out (Ventus Z211); however, last I heard, it was only available in a 205/50-15 and via Vilven Tire, and possibly only to spec Miata racers running in some SCCA series?? Hankook is supposedly slated to release it in a broader size range, but with only one size right now...
For the street, Hankook has been working on a very sticky, low-buck tire to compete directly with the Falken Azenis and the Kumho Ecsta MX (this is not the same as the low-buck Ecsta Supra 712), but while the tire appears in their marketing literature, it hasn't been released yet.
Hankook is looking to employ the same strategy that Kumho has to get a foothold in the U.S. market -- foster brand recognition and reputation by selling low-buck, high-performance tires to enthusiasts.
