Is HANKOOK tyres consider cheap and low grade?
The newly launch VW TIGUAN fitted with Hankook Ventus s1 evo2 SUV and also the newly launch BMW 740Le fitted with Hankook Ventus s1 evo2 RFT. Never use this brand before and wonder should I swap the tyre right away when I collect the car. |

After 1k km running in my 18" Noble2...so far very satisfied...no issue with spirited town driving
It may be a comfort tyre, but for 18" it's handling is still quite sharp...overall a very composed drive |

They are made more for sedan/sports car tire sizes or SUV which use low profile tires.too bad......I would not havemind trying out the tire |

It was a very bad tires, failed to disperse water on wet road even new. The pattern already screams "slippery when wet" ... lol...It's not very bad per se...just not designed to disperse water... But yes I agree don't buy this...

Hi, Anybody try Hankook Venture v2 Concept, seems good look?
How about wet and dry braking? IS the noise level acceptable? Some says better don't touch Korea Brand, what says all? |
