Tires Hankook or MRF
I've seen some good comments about the Hankook Ions
I got the Hankook iON EVO AS tires and like them so far. Hopefully they don’t bubble on sidewall as easily as the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires.
I use 165/80 r15 hankook summer tires and they are excellent, both wet and dry grip.
Back to the actual tires, so far my completely subjective take is that they are indeed quieter and smoother than the factory Bridgestone Alenzas.
I’m in Maine and my studded Hanook snow tires make my hybrid unstoppable.
Yo uso hankook, tengo un año y medio con ellas y estan a 3/4 de vida, ademas de que tienen buen agarre en curvas y lluvia, y no son tan caras como continental, estas también salen muy buenas, pero el precio es más elevado.
Hankook RS4s have my recommendation if you're not going to compete in sanctioned time attacks where prizes are on the line. I value tire longevity rather than saving one or two seconds per lap with a theoretical perfect racing line(not something that's bound to happen often).
I feel that the Kinergy GT tires are mediocre at best for most conditions. Had them on our 2017 and they still had at least 4-5 32nds of tread when we turned in the lease at 38,000 miles, but at least 10k of those miles were with snow tires. I think 35-40k would be the max upper range and probably hitting the wear bars by then.
I have only had my GLI for 10 days, and I can already tell it could use better tires than these Kinergy GTs.
I never realized how bad the Kinergy GT's were until I got some Continental DWS06's. They really are a terrible tire OP, definitely worth replacing altogether
