After 22,000 miles, my stock Pirelli’s were down to 2/32” and desperately needed to be replaced. I ordered the Hankooks based on a recommendation from a user here from SimpleTire. They already feel 1000x better than the worn ones they replaced. They also look a little more rugged than the Pirellis and I really like the overall look of them on the Riv.
I am running the Terra Grappler G3’s and so far love them.
Hankook R-S4 if you aren't chasing 10ths because they grip well and wear like iron. They just don't grip quite as well as the rest of the "Super200" autocross tires.
I just got the Hankook Ion Evo A/S installed on my 24’ MY a few weeks back. Great tires. More silent than the oem cont ones.
I recently put HPAS 205/50/15 Nitto Neo Gen on my NB since i’m on a budget. So far they’ve been much better than expected. They grip significantly noticeably more than what the previous owner had (ironman tires.) they grip to the point i struggle to throw the rear out without kicking it. Last tires I could cut the wheels and just hit it and the rear would slip out but with these even flicking it doesn’t want to break out. They’ve been performing great in corners as well, I’ve been able to take some 10-20mph faster without worry.
grab a set of hankook kinergy tires(also fairly cheap) and trust, itll feel like a whole different car. Handling will improve an exponential amount. You'll feel a night and day difference
Hankooks- don’t mind them.
My car came delivered new with the Hankook (edit: actually Ventus S1) ion evos, so I haven't had a chance to compare with others. I'm in Canada, so similar weather to you. I put on dedicated winter tires however from the short time I spent with the Hankooks in snow I think they're fine at being an all season tire. Not stellar but fine. Wet performance also seems fine. Efficiency is great. However, grip is definitely not the best.
My 2023 ford explorer has them on it from stock with 23k miles and they are very noisy and they do not handle well at any speed
My 2023 model 3 LR came with Hankook Kinergy GT M&S tires. Based on the tire rack reviews I think they are almost identical to the Hankook Ion tires.
If so. My experience with the Kinergy tires was not great. While they were super efficient (lifetime average 246wh/mile) they gave up early on spirited cornering on both dry and wet pavement (might be the difference between avoiding a potential accident). They are adequate in winter driving. Where the were outright dangerous was hydroplaning.
