I love my Hankook Ions, my MYP had the Pirelli Pzeros as my original set.
One thing that hasn’t been mentioned is the road noise and how much quieter the drive is.
I’ve had both and the biggest difference I saw was the range hit. I was the sole driver so no difference in driving style - MPS AS4’s were 10% worse. Loved them but would go with the Hankooks were I to do it again.
The Hankooks are slightly softer absorbing a smidge more of the road. Noise difference between the 2 isn't noticeable at all. The Hankooks are slightly more efficient, lifetime on the Michelins is 306whm and the Hankooks are 297whm(tracked via TeslaMate).
So my OEM Hankook tires, inflated normally to 40psi were wearing down on the edges of the tire. The look of the tire is amazing. Completely changes the look of the truck. The tires didn’t have any more appreciable noise - I listened intently at 40 mph and might have heard a bit more
I have a pair of Kenda Slant Six in 60 tpi, they are good roller, grippy enough, and pretty supple. I do like them.
With about 28,000 miles on my 2022 SEL AWD, it was time to replace the the Michelin's. I picked the Ions because it seemed like Hankook did their homework in terms of designing a tire with range and longevity considerations. Initial thoughts:
-VERY QUIET. These are somehow substantially quieter than the OEM wheels. Noise from bumps and rough roads are somehow soaked up as well. I'm impressed.
-Smooth and planted. Rolling on these at moderate speeds feels like floating on a cloud. Steering and acceleration/braking felt great too, no issues feeling like there's no grip.
-Didn't have too much rain experience, but it seemed to handle wet conditions fine, about the same as OEM.
-One con I noticed: These have a foam lining on the inside.
Depois de muita pesquisa em relação qualidade preço escolhi os Hankook Ventus Prime 3 K125.
My Klevers last about 20k and get noisy long before that. For me, traction is fine and hasn't been an issue in the rain or mild snow.
Got a set of Hankook with 70k miles warranty. After about 35k miles with mainly local suburban driving, the tread wear is almost to the indicator bar. Don't get Hankook.
Noisy is the least of your worries. These things are straight up plastic tires in the rain, seriously keep your distance and granny it in the rain.
