I used to love this tire. Have fitted it on both cars. Soft, good handling esp in wet, comfortable, low noise. Handling and braking becomes less efficient in very hot roads. But the main disadvantage which led me back to michelin tires is the weak sidewall. I ve torn two almost new tires just by touching edges of the sidewall. Michelin would not notice. Never again

Undoubtedly one of the best tires in the premium segment, with excellent value for money. They provide an excellent grip and driving experience, regardless of the condition of the road surface. I recommend them!

The tires were bought new this year. It may be a little early for a concrete test and description, but still...the tires "behave" fantastically. The grip is excellent (even now, when it's 4 degrees in the morning). They are quiet and relatively comfortable. Road feedback is perfect (unlike the previous GYs). For once, the "fuel" consumption is quite high compared to the previous tires (GY EP2) (about 20% higher), but time will tell when they are a little more worn (rolling resistance of new ones) and warmer outside - EV is particularly "sensitive" here (rolling resistance)! In summary, an extremely good tire for a very very good price. I would definitely buy it again!

Given 67% while driving a Saab Automobile 9 3 SPORTSCOMBI (235/45 R18) on mostly country roads for 11,000 easy going miles
Overall a very good tire. Had zero issues with them except excessive wear. Mostly country road driving mixed with some highways from time to time. No spirited driving at all really, just according to speed limits.

All in all it is a good handling tire, safe in all conditions but after 18000km the tires are down to the wear indicator. At this point the tires feels very odd and not trustworthy. I will not buy hankook tires after this excessive wear and strange feeling at the end of tires life.

The best summer tire I drove was the Continental premium contact. And I wanted to try something different, and I need to say that I didn't regret, hankook ventus prime 4 is very good replacement. I am more than satisfied, and I would recommend that tire.
Thanks

Good quality, quiet, soft and resistant tire. Provides excellent rim protection and good cornering agility. I put on 4 new tires about a month ago to replace some Michelin Primacy 4, and it was definitely an upgrade over the original tires, especially in terms of comfort and noise. When I need to change tires in the future, I'll certainly choose the same ones, I recommend them!

Given 80% while driving a (195/55 R15) on a combination of roads for 100 spirited miles
Previously was using Goodyear Triplemax 2 at the front and Ventus Prime 3 at the rear. Changed all 4 to Ventus Prime 4 just a few days ago and here is the difference -

Positive points
1. Less understeer
2. Felt the car glides smoother on the road.

Negative points
1. Slightly less steering feel.

I will update more as I drive.

When new: grip on dry and wet was very good. Always had a good feedback. Low noise and fuel consumption normal. But the tire came new with 6.5 mm. Ok, they were cheap. Now they have 2-3 mm and they really got bad now. Especially in the rain. I would not buy them again. To high wear.
