There was an immediate difference after having these new tyres installed a few months ago. The ease at which I could take corners, accelerate and brake was outstanding and shocking! With these tyres I feel much safer on the road and was extremely happy with the purchase. I didn't know anything about Hankook previously but will definitely be purchasing them again in future.

Great all round tyres that tick all the boxes! My only regret buying theses tyres is that I didn’t buy them earlier. Would recommend these to anyone looking for new tyres. Hankook is a good trusted brand and would purchase these again in the future.

These tyre have pretty good dry performance and good wet weather performance. They are showing pretty good wear pattern after 5000km of mixed driving conditions. Can be a little noisy on course chip road but otherwise a pretty good tyre for the money and good alternative to the usual big name brands.

Purchased the tyres for the rear of the vehicle as I had a puncture. I wanted to keep the tread pattern the same on both rears. Would prefer to keep the same tread pattern on all four usually but the fronts only had just over 10k kms on them at the time.Would normally purchase more upmarket tyres, however, these were a good balance of performance and value for money.Tyres perform as expected from the price point- good in the dry and slightly below par in the wet. A good budget choice!
