I have had them for 3 winters on a Corolla and found them very good for snow, and decent for ice albeit not quite as good as Blizzaks or Hakkapellitas on ice. They ride quietly and have decent tread wear ratings.
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 got a Mazda 2 with good winter tires , I'm in Calgary. It costs me almost nothing on gas, and I finish the week with way more money in my pocket. in my 40 years of life I've learned a FWD car with decent rubber will handle winter good as any suv.
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.
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. Not terrible. At 12k now and the fronts probably needed to be rotated sooner. If I get another 5k out of the set that would be nice.
Mine came with the Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 3 rubber. Only had them for little over 100 miles before switching out to Pirelli P Zero AS Plus 3. No opinion on the Hankooks due to limited mileage, other than they seemed OK.
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.
I decided to try a set of Hankook Ventus S1 Evo3 because they were suppose to have the foam inside the tires to have less road noise and performance while close to that of PS4S. Boy was I wrong, they weren't that quiet, and the sidewall was soft but made the car super bouncy. Felt like I was driving on some balloon tires for some reason.
