Hankook ventus is good?

Planning to buy the wheels along with the tires. Still considering if hankook ventus is worth it or not. I probably use this tires during spring, summer, and fall. However, my current city always rain and sometimes cold below 45 all the time during fall. Is it fine to use hankook when it rains? Thank you

I would go with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3s. They are getting great reviews, even comparing favorably against Summer tires such as Michelin Pilot Super Sports. They are all season tires that wear well, and perform like summer tires. Sounds like the best of all worlds.

I had DWSs on my F10 for almost a year. The wear well, but the sidewalls are too soft. Unless you not concerned with performance, I would not recommend them.

By the way, I currently have the Hankook Ventus tires on my car, and have also had Michelin PSSs as well. Long story, but I had some issues with tires and wheels.

For the price and performance from this tire, you wont find a better buy. I've had them and loved them. Also, here is a quick sum of what C&D tested:
