Back to the actual tires, so far my completely subjective take is that they are indeed quieter and smoother than the factory Bridgestone Alenzas.
Pros: quieter and smoother

Hankook iPikes. Bought used missing only 1/32 tread from factory new. $150 for the set from someone that sold the Hyundai they were on to get a Toyota SUV (don’t recall which one). I don’t care for them, being used to a higher tier of winter tire. They slip more on ice and snow grip is decent but I’ve had better in Blizzaks, or the best in Hakkapelitas.
Pros: decent snow grip
Cons: slip more on ice
I’m in Maine and my studded Hanook snow tires make my hybrid unstoppable.
Pros: hybrid unstoppable
Yo uso hankook, tengo un año y medio con ellas y estan a 3/4 de vida, ademas de que tienen buen agarre en curvas y lluvia, y no son tan caras como continental, estas también salen muy buenas, pero el precio es más elevado.
Pros: buen agarre en curvas
Cons: precio más elevado
Only experience with OE Hancocks was on a VW Passat. Took delivery on new car and drove home from the dealer in a snow storm and it was the most severe case of white knuckle syndrome ever. The car was absolutely dangerous and scary.
Cons: dangerous and scary
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
I noticed a decrease in MPGs once I replaced them on my 2018
Cons: decrease in MPGs
That's why we call them Hancraps. One of the worst factory tires period from anyone in this day and age. Came on my 19 Platinum FX4, AT2 or ATM whatever model it was. Horrible, by far, worst wet weather traction
Cons: worst wet weather traction
Vehicle:
Ford
Hankook RS4s have my recommendation if you're not going to compete in sanctioned time attacks where prizes are on the line. I value tire longevity rather than saving one or two seconds per lap with a theoretical perfect racing line(not something that's bound to happen often).
Pros: tire longevity
Cons: less grippy
Vehicle:
Porsche Cayman
If anyone wants good cheap tires, go with something reputable. I and lot of guys in my local Miata club run hankook ventus v2s. Can be had for 60-70$ per tire, and grip is very good for the price. They do wear pretty fast with hard driving but great value.
Pros: grip is very good
Cons: wear pretty fast
Vehicle:
Mazda
I’m a fan of hankook dynapro. Quiet on the highway, but has enough tread to function in the mud.
Pros: quiet on the highway
