I’m quite impressed by how these tires perform on wet roads even with how aggressive they are compared to other similarly aggressive all terrains like the BFGoodrich KO2 that I used to have. They also have a pretty good 70K mile warranty which is pretty great!
I really like Hankook tires. I've had no problem with traction and acceleration with my MYP with the Hankook ION Evos.
Hankook K435 Kinergy. Fantastic for what it costs
If endurance consistency and value are what you're looking for, it's Hankook rs4. Slower than the ecf but similar tires, cheaper and more tread life
Just got the Hankook iON EVO AS SUV on my 23 LR Y. The car came with the Goodyear eagle F1 asymmetric 5 and they always seemed noisy and not super comfortable. After a couple days of driving with the hankooks I can definitely say they are MUCH more smooth and comfortable than the Goodyears. Yes I know I only have a few days on them so far but very impressive so far.
I installed Hankook ION EV AS tires at MIDAS - 25% cheaper than at the KIA dealership and free tire rotation for life. So far, they are great tires.
Hankook Ion EVO AS. They just released these specifically for EVs.
It has made my car so much better in terms of road noise and comfort. It beats out the Pilot 4S in every aspect except stopping strength. I had to get used to the longer stopping distance but that was easy. Weirdly enough, it seems to handle corners better because there is less skidding.
For those who are interested, I had the Hankook ION Evo (Summer) tires installed to replace the stock Pirelli P Zero (PZ4) Elect tires on my Tesla Model 3 Performance ('22). There are pros and cons compared to the stock Pirelli tires, in my opinion:
Pros:
- Quieter (especially on highways)
- More comfortable (damping on uneven road surfaces, but uneven road surfaces also less noticeable in the steering)
- Better grip in rain and wet conditions
- Slightly lighter steering feel
- Slightly easier full acceleration straight of the line
- More efficient (+/- 1% less battery consumption per trip)
Cons:
- Steering feel and response are less direct
- Grip during hard cornering is not great (at least, the limit is simply lower than with the Pirellis)
- Overall sportiness is diminished
Only fly in the ointment seems to be the OEM tires, Hankook Kinergy GTs. I've noticed, in the very short time we've had the car, that they are noticeably noisier than the Cooper Endeavors we had on our trade in, and the Michelin Cross Climate 2s we have on our other car.
If you're just driving on dry pavement, they're ok. They are absolutely horrible on wet pavement (poor grip and hydroplane easy). My daily driver came with them on it new and couldn't wait to get them off.
