Happy to report I am now at 70,366 miles on the car, so about 28K miles have been driven on these tires. Tires are working well, with no complaints. No noise issues, they don’t seem to have gotten louder since day one. Grip is fine. Most important, unlike my OEM Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires… I’ve had no sidewall bubbles or other issues. I highly recommend these Hankook tires.
It's hard to beat the Hankook iPike. I've run them on every vehicle I've ever had...only time I've been disappointed is when I tried a different tire.
Because the RS-4 gives you tons of life and doesn't suck
Hankook Ipike for winter, put these on an AWD car and your almost unstoppable in the winter, sloppy handling and like every snow tire get noisier the more miles you put on them.
For something with some level of grip and high durability I suggest Hankook RS4.
If you want good ones but not pay premium price, go for second tier brands Nordman (Nokian), Kleber (Michelin), Firestone (Bridgestone) or Hankook (independent).
Last time I bought tires they were Hankooks. Came 2nd (or something) in a test by Tekniikan Maailma.
My MYP came with Hankook, so far I'm impressed
I have the Hankook and they’re as quiet or more than OEM. They were also the best priced and had the longest tread wear rating.
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
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.
