Give you good price/value, then say skeptical..
FYI, Hankook is consider as same premium tire brand as Bridgestone/Michelin at oversea.
Only here we still treat it as mid-range tire.

Look at the Premium category, Hankook & Dunlop also in that same Premium category.

Noted. I will verify this in next coming years on my current set.

My experience with VP3 was frustrating. Lack of grip in wet. Very poor aquaplaning resistance.

It was fitted on 2 cars of different sizes. The driving experience was roughly similar.

Drive slow or fast also lost grip. The bad experience dettered me from using Hankook tires ever again.

Hankook VP3 was mid range tyres by them. Last time almost bought it cz of attractive price for 18", until the shop ask, if u need similar level as PS4 (my current tyres), this is a downgrade. So back to Oscar for another round of PS4.

Maybe their Hankook S1 Evo series can fight with Michelin PS series, but never experience so far

Ya won't say superb,if for we u shud take S1evo3.
Btw ur tyre size?

Tires manufacturer will improve by introducing newer model replacement.
Like in the past Falken a lot of people complain no use during the old ZE522 model, after ZE914 model come out the performance improved a lot.
Manufacturers for sure will listen to complains and improve in order to win back orders.

Last time eyeing this falken azenis fk510, but due to less shop bring it in here, and iinm made in Japan, the price is more expansive than PS4 Michelin.

Now FK520 even more expensive, with PS5 performance even worse than PS4 i got friends direct upgrade to Falken 520.

205/50R16
235/50R18

I've tried FK510 on 225/45R19

Superb grip on wet & have excellent aquaplaning resistance.

However, the happiness lasted till halfway, when the threads start thinning, the grip loses considerably.

Mileage was low. I only got around 35k km on those tires.

FK520 was claimed to have better grip, lower weight & longer thread life than the FK510.

Price is also significantly higher almost close to Michelin PS series pricing

Agree with DM3 on Hankook Ventus V12 ...it was a great tire until it was no longer in production due to end-of-life product.
I am now on Continental Ultra Contact 7 (UC7) 214/45/R17, and it is unbelievable quiet tires with it's truly engineered in Malaysia story.

Never a fan of Contis ,tried their MC,PC really bad buy yet to try UC or SC.
UC7 grips ok?

Your honest opinion for UC7 on wet heavy rain traction. I was disappointed with UC6 wet traction (original equipped tyre), its skidding at turning down karak highway + rain, at not so much speed. I thought SUV handling issues, but after change the tyre, similar routes, ok back as normal tyre. On FB car group, similar feedback for UC6 until saw plenty of owner sold their half used UC6 at affordable price, rm100-120/pcs for 225-55-19. No doubt they UC series is quiet but thats about it

Hai,

I'm looking for 225/50 R18 tires for my Estima. I'm considering these options so far: 1) MC07, 2) Primacy 5. Are there any other options I should consider?"

FYI, Continental already updated the UC6 SUV tire range to UX7.

Budget? What your need? Just want comfort, quiet? Different tire brand/model got their pro & con, so need to know your priority.

Traction A only

budget between 600-700 pcs.. I prefer comfort + quiet ride.

What's a good and cheap set of tyres for 10-year old Proton Saga? Been using Dunlop SP series all these years but recently price has gone up so perhaps can find cheaper alternative?

Priorities are quiet (less road noise) and comfort. Budget around 100+ for each tyre.

If you can pay so much money then go for Michelin Primacy series.
