I installed Hankook ION EV AS tires at MIDAS - 25% cheaper than at the KIA dealership and free tire rotation for life. So far, they are great tires.
Hankook Ion EVO AS. They just released these specifically for EVs.
It has made my car so much better in terms of road noise and comfort. It beats out the Pilot 4S in every aspect except stopping strength. I had to get used to the longer stopping distance but that was easy. Weirdly enough, it seems to handle corners better because there is less skidding.
I would recommend the Hankook Ion Evo A/S I have them on my Model S, very little road noise, very Efficient and has low rolling resistance as designed.
If we are willing to go SLIGHTLY off-size, there are Hankook Ion Evo tires. You would have to get 215/50/R17 because they technically dont offer the factory size. Good reviews, good price, efficient, and they have a rebate right now.
I have had 2 pairs of hankooks and multiple others. I think the hankooks are 90% the tire that the hakapelitas are for about half of the price.
I've had the Hankook Ion Evo AS on my SE for the last week. Much quieter than the Ventus S2 that were replaced. Really liking them so far. Same efficiency this week on my normal commute as the Ventus S2 were getting me.
45k on my ions. Probably have about 5k left. Will definitely be getting them again. They have been fantastic!
The stock tires kind of suck, but I think people here overblow how bad they are. They're acceptable for daily driving, but a lot of people who buy these cars like to drive them like racecars from time to time and in that regard they are pretty terrible.
Only experience with OE Hancocks was on a VW Passat. Took delivery on new car and drove home from the dealer in a snow storm and it was the most severe case of white knuckle syndrome ever. The car was absolutely dangerous and scary.
That's why we call them Hancraps. One of the worst factory tires period from anyone in this day and age. Came on my 19 Platinum FX4, AT2 or ATM whatever model it was. Horrible, by far, worst wet weather traction
