Tires Hankook or NANKANG
Here’s an update on the Hankook tires. They are notably more efficient than the Pirellis. My daily commute was showing an average energy use of 285 Whr/mile pretty consistently. For the past month, it is now at 235 Whr/mile. This is in addition to being notably quieter over most road surfaces.
I think it really depends on the car. A fresh set of 13” AR-1 will last 2000-3000km on track on my dad’s Caterham.
Slower but vastly more durable tire > outright pace for an 8 hour enduro. And the answer to that is, as always, Hankook RS4.
That's about as quiet as you'll get before going to a street tire. I have hankook dynapro at on one jeep and they seem a little quieter but they're also on a quieter jeep.
The falkens are pretty quiet though on my other jeep.
I’m running Hancook Kinenergy 4s2 on mine. 18R 9.5 W 245 45.
High performance, All Weather, rated W around $900 for a full set. They grip nice, great in the snow and water too
Hankook Kinergy’s. I’ve never had a budget tire that gripped as well as they.
Solid performance in wet, snow, and dry conditions, very minimal tire noise.
my Frontier's 18" OEM Hankook AT's lasted over 5 years and 63k I don't think I rotated them once
I have a set of Nankangs on my Ghia. They are a decent tire, but don't expect tons of grip from them, and they're pretty hard.
Just replaced the stock Hankook's on our 2016 after only 20,000 miles. Granted mostly around town miles but damn they wore quickly.
Bridgestone, Michelin or Pirelli. Cooper a decent mid brand. Stay away from Hankook.
