Well, FWIW, my new set of Hankook iON i-Cept SUV (IW01A) 275/35R21 is behaving as expected in the wet Vancouver weather. Had them on for a month now, running 35 PSI front and 36 PSI rear, it's comfortable, quiet and grippy.
Compared to the stock summer Pirellis my Hankooks don't skip/rub at low speed at full lock, get going better off the line in the wet, and seem very predictable into the corners.
Im running a set of hankook dynapro at3 extremes. I love the white lettering and they honestly have been performing great. Kick butt in the snow and they are super quiet on the highway
I went with Firestone destination at/2 in 235/65 r17. They are great and light weight! Only 4lbs more than stock tires.
I replaced the tires on my Dual Motor model last month at 21,000 miles with Hankook Ion hT tires, which offer an 80,000-mile tread warranty
I have a set of Firestone Destination All terrains tires and i love them.
Hankook are the official tires for Hyundai and Kia, they are just the same quality as the other big brands but usually slightly cheaper, try to look for that
The OEM Hankooks (on my 24') go full slip and slide mode if there's a drop of water on the road anywhere within 3 miles.
I can turn the "heavy steering" wheel with two pinched fingers and just my wrist when driving. It's not a big deal.
Diff breather mod.
Check the rain channels on the roof for cracking paint. Dealer should fix that as it's considered a workmanship warranty, else you can apply clear coat to the spots yourself to seal them when it inevitably cracks again.
If a leaf ever gets under the moulding/gasket around the windshield it can and will sound like your front speakers are crackling and dying when driving past 60 MPH and make your blood pressure go up trying to figure out what the hell is making that noise.
'24 Golf R that came with Hankooks. Just hit 14k miles and they're still going with about 4/32nd's left. Definitely getting louder as the tread goes lower. Overall, not terrible tires but don't have a lot of feel and grip is reasonable.
When I had those tires mounted on my 3, they wore extremely rapidly - so much so that the rep at Discount Tire was surprised.
Worse tires I've ever had was a set of hankook tires, as soon as they got a drop of water on them they would feel like you're driving on ice
