Great tires ,and will always ask a tire fitter if they stock Hankook before I consider buying any tires of any other brand. My Sharon is a heavy car 1250 kg and these tires work hard.

These came as OE. At just over 22,000 miles on mixed roads, I've had to replace the front tires and will have to replace the rear ones in about 2k miles. Obviously a dreadful performance.

They were ok on dry roads, noisy on motorways and just felt 'thin', every little bump was registered. I wasn't too happy when, for the first time in a 40yr driving career, I skidded doing c.15mph round a lightly icy bend. I never felt exactly comfortable in wet weather, nothing I could definitively point to, just 'thin'.

I replaced these tires with Firestones (77K warranty) - the difference all round is very marked. I'll never bother with Hankook again.

Had them on car at purchase, mileage was 4,000. It is now 88,000 kms and just needing to change all four tires. Never had any problems with the tires, always handled ok. Mostly town driving not touring. Garage offered us Hankook tires as the cheapest option, saying the harder rubber was better for the in town driving we mainly do. We were skeptical about buying cheap tires from a brand we did not know, until we realised that we had been driving Hankooks all along. So yes, we would buy them again.

I'had like to buy this same tire again

I have 32000 miles and there is still 4mm left on each tire. I highly recommend these but I think Handcock no longer make this type of tire. It has been replaced by another.

Hi

Supplied as OE on the car and I do find them noisey.I am not that happy with the wear but have swung the tires Front to back so see what happens.All the above is subjective in that I have only driven this car with the OE tires.

Came on the car when I purchased it new. They are good value, more noise then i expected, got good mileage from them, replacing them with Conti EcoContact 5.

These tires have great grip, combined with my hard suspension I get to go around corners pretty well. However I have had three sets of these tires already and my car isn't even over the 90 000km mark yet, the wear is terrible. For each set I have gotten bubbles in the sidewalls of the tires within the first 4-6months at first I replaced these tires but it was getting to be very expensive. The only reason I kept rebuying these tires is because it is the only brand that fits my rim size, it will cost me the same to replace both my rims and tires with continetals than it would cost to rebuy a set of 4 tires.So that is what I am doing next.
