They are the factory tyres that came with the car, hankook is a decent brand but for Australian conditions they need to improve the quality of performance and comfort. I have had continental tyres before and they where amazing in every way. An upgrade to decent tyres is needed especially now it's the wet season.

I think this tyre is very road noisy and for that reason alone I wouldn't purchase this tyre again.

Onto my second set of these tires so far, they perform very well. They have never slipped on wet or dry roads. However the tread does not seem to be very durable.

The first factory fitted set of these I got 65,000km with regular rotations front to rear. Second set lasted 50,000km but I did not rotate (all were wearing evenly anyway). Probably could have done with a wheel alignment as the L/H side tyres have outer edge wear and might have been able to get another 5,000km or so.Mostly highway kilometres. I recommend thistyre, but want to see if I can find something that can get more kilometres next time round.

I have driven to the Kimberly coast with these tyres and back again and have had no flats and they have worn really well. They were so good I put the same brand on again.

Had a good run with these tyres so far. They are wearing well, response is good and they are comfortable to drive on. Can't fault them so far.

Mostly city driving, some long highway trips. Tyres have worn very well, although there is a fair bit of road noise. Traction good. Bit slippery in the wet but only notice on take off.

These tyres have taken me to and from Qld on several occasions as far as Hervey Bay and in and around Brisbane.I live in Wollongong NSW and travel a couple of times each year.So far I've had the current tyres on for 4 years. They retain pressure very well and always perform well in wet weather as well as dry.  I wouldn't think of buying any other brand now and am currently needing to replace the 4 tyres within the next couple of weeks.
