Tires Hankook or Pirelli
My Hankook icept IZ3's are killing the New York weather...
I've got the pzero race 4s and they're great. From the reviews I read they have great grip but lose a few watts of rolling vs the pure race versions. Still very fast though. Plus they installed super easily. I'd buy them again for sure.
I switched to Pirelli P Zero Race for a rig that\u2019s set up for speed and I am really loving it.
I only rode budget tires like Pirelli P7 Sport (35 mm) and Continental Ultra Sport (32 mm). Both tires have the same width, but the Pirelli has a kevlar bead instead of wire.
I just went out on my P zero Road tires for the first time yesterday and was plenty happy with them.
I'm rocking the Hankook Ion I-Cept SUV since two winter (25-26), because I needed the bigger batterie for the winter driving when I bought it since I was traveling 90km to go to work and using the car for work usage into the city.\n\nI live in a small village in Quebec, Canada, and the performance on the tires have been okay at best\n\nThey're not noisy and they are great on pavement and light snow, but aren't doing well in heavy snow and they suck on ice.
Here in the UK I replaced mine about 2 years after the last set were installed. Car averages about 11000 miles per year. The previous ones were Bridgestone Alenza I think. I went with the Pirelli P Zero NCS for the 22 inch rims. I cant tell if they are quieter but handle well.
They're shit tires in many ways and not worthy of WRC, but then again, everyone has to drive with the same shit tire.
Just the amount of punctures we have already had in the first nine stages, not to mention the massive amount of punctures last year, is not a good look on Hankook.
I did the pirelli EV tires. So expensive, minimal gains over Michelin or others. Don't do it just don't do it. I'm not convinced EV tires aren't just another way to upcharge for tires.
The only sour note was that the factory Pirelli P6s were garbage, replaced three of them by 10k mi due to sidewall knots, broken belts, etc. Plus they were useless in the rain.
