Tires Hankook or DUNLOP
I bought a set of Sportsmart mk3 last year on my mt09, and I have to say, It's the best choice I've made. The rear is now done after 15k kms, and I ride quite aggressive, power wheelies, fast twisties. I didn't expect it to last this long.
First hour I got them installed on Nissan frontier pickup, highway distracted a bit almost not paying attention at 70mph traffic stop in front of me. I had to choose calculate between braking hard or soft. I chose the latter (softer) for fear of skidding and hitting the cars ahead. Car stopped safely. Coming from 6 year old hankook dynapro which are stiff at 35 psi I could have plowed over. These are sure comfy ride, no need to air down, the all terrain version.
I have the ion evo summer tires, on a model 3 lr. These are the best summer tires I have ever owned, they are super grippy in wet and dry, quieter than the propilot 4, super comfortable, feel softer but have stability and performance of sporty tires.
They’re made by hankook, pretty decent budget tires.
I have the all weather EVO in Denver and I like them. They have a softer feel than the original OEM tire which makes them seem quieter. I don’t drive much when it snows but I haven’t found them to be a problem… just drive like a sane person. I recommended the Hankooks.
I have a set on my M3P.
I have no traction complaints regarding the Hankook tires.
I bought a pair of HK Ventus Concept 2 for the front of my 2018 Camry over the summer. I’ve been buying this tire in my other beater car & they've held up okay.
My Ion’s are about to be replaced at 40k km’s (25k miles), which is around what I’ve been getting on my Performance (with 18” wheels). New Zealand has rather coarse roads tho…
I had some hankook Kinergy, I didn’t love them. They were loud and didn’t last super long
These tires came on my car, so they got the brunt of the new car testing fun. While these were good tires for: noise, efficiency I didn't think I'm going to get these again due to: Hydroplane prone. Winter traction: passable, but not great. Dry handling: again, not great, you could feel the tires wanting to give up in some cornering situations.
