Tires Hankook or Giti
For long hot summers, they’ll work, but you’ll get better dry grip and road feel from something like the Hankook Kinergy 4S2. Those hold up better in heat and don’t get as squishy.
I like my RS4 in the rain. They will slide in tight situations in standing water, but it’s controllable. They’re very steady at speed.
Yes. they are amazing! had them on my mini countryman for 4 1/2 years. also are pretty good in warm weather too (its a higher performance all-season)
Got some Hankook ion Evo tires for my Model Y. Had the Asymmetric 5’s and they lasted 50k so I’m hoping these last a long time too. Right off the bat they are softer than my old ones but not as sporty. Still a very good tire and can pick up the pace.
Some hankook Ventus Tyred 80$ and perfect for the car
Another alternative is to look for budget tier tires. I went down the rabbit hole recently and Giti is apparently decent enough and performs well as its branded peers in wet conditions.
Ive heard of laufenn but im more familiar with Giti as you see there stuff rebranded in the US as GT Radial and Dextero which are popular in discount tire and walmart. They’re a good budget tire but dont expect 50k out of them. I find most budget tires feel just as good as the more expensive stuff with their longevity being the main drawback
We recently had to replace our OEM tires 23M rwd and went with the cross climate 2s. They suck the kilowatts out of the battery and are very noisy Since we got them a discount tire, we’re gonna get them replaced Monday with the Hankooks
I have a 2021 VW Tiguan SE 4Motion with 43k miles, still rocking its factory Giti tires. While prepping for a road trip, I discovered that all four are dry rotting pretty badly, and one is starting to crack on the sidewall. Kinda looks like I needed tires yesterday.
I have a 2023 and love it, but the hankook dynapro at2 tires are the worst I’ve ever experienced. Laughable traction in wet weather, a slight incline would spin the rears no matter what. Worse, they punctured 4 times just from driving on dirt roads. Gravel was opening these things up like they were ziplock bags.
