$1000 budget for tires

Another vote for the V12. Sticky tires mean you'll wear them out faster. Hankook are good cheap tires that I won't feel bad about replacing them again.

true, but how much more do they cost, and is that cost worth it?

I believe you pay for what you get. I am not trying to buy the most expensive tires out there and claim that it is the best, but I personally think the V12s and the Pilot Super Sports are in different leagues.. I am debating between the PSS and the conti DW and maybe the bridgestones

I have been reading good things about the V12's and the conti DW's. I had the conti DWS's and liked them for an all season. When I get new rims/tires I'll go with either v12's or DW's.

I also recommend Hankook V12 EVOS for the street. I love them and will be purchasing another set when these wear out!

Well quite a bit. The PSS are 215 a corner, but they have a 9.5 rating as opposed to a 7.1 rating of the v12 in the "would you buy again".

Also the tread wear ratings are 300 for the Michelin and 280 for the v12 so not much difference.
