In comparing equal sizes, the EVO3 appears to be heavier, have more stabilized treadblocks, and stronger sidewalls/belts, but made with a softer rubber compound. Probably a better tire for track use.
Just got the hankooks last month swapped the kumhos at 40k. Slightly louder than the kumhos but not by much. As an earlier person said insanely better in heavy rain/standing water I felt like I was driving an suv the last time I was in a deluge just wicked right though it. Efficiency seems about the same as kumhos.
I replaced my GT summer tires with the Hankooks and couldn’t be happier. I went through this last mild winter in the pacific northwest with no issues. Good grip in light snow and heavy rain. Low noise and great handling with my sometimes overly aggressive driving.
I started with the khumos on a wind AWD, have the hankook’s now. The hankooks are way better in standing water/rain, and are stiffer overall. This leads to a little more road vibration but is not a major complaint. The khumos also wore out faster. Efficiency wise the hankooks are very very close but slightly less
I have the hankook's on 20's. Expensive. No issues.
I have the hankooks- they’re awesome. Will be buying again when they wear out. Had them about a year now and no issues. Way better in rain than the alenzas. My range went up with the hankooks.
I have no idea about the Kumhos, but I have the Hankooks. They're nice and quiet, although I feel like they're a bit more firm as a tire compared to the Alenzas it came with.
In average, max sustained, and peak db level in the cabin, the Hankooks were anywhere between .5 db and 2.5 db quieter than the Scorpions.
Years ago I had an enlightening experience with Hankook Dynapro MTs, when I broke a tire and for a few weeks in winter had a a siped tire on on end of the rear axle and an unsiped tire on the other. The limited slip had to work very hard to keep me on the road in ice conditions in 2WD.
I have 4 on my GLI and I doubt they will last 35,000 km. I took them off and put on my winters at 25K and they don't look like they will last much longer. I don't drive my car hard at all. Last winter, with 5000 to 7000 km on them, I could barely move in a parking lot with 10 cm of snow.
