Tires Hankook or Cooper

I have only ever used the Ventus V12 Evo2 tires. They were the exact opposite - tread lasted far longer than I expected. Had to replace them due to age, not mileage / tread.

I have 4 Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 2 on one of my cars and they are awesome tires. They are now nearing 2 years old and have done over 40k Km on them and they still have at least 30% thread left before hitting the thread marker.

Monday night, I put Cooper CS3's on the front and balanced the garbage West Lakes that are on the rear. All 4 were surprisingly round and none of the rims bent. I can now get around corners faster dry and wet, and can oversteer the car pretty easily when near the limit.

Cooper Discoverer AT3. Good dry and wet grip. Low road noise. Wheels halfway decent.

I am so tempted to put some Cooper AT/3s on mine. The stock Continentals are not great and I have already picked up two screws in 3 months. I never got any holes in 50k miles on the AT/3s on my Pathfinder.

It finally came down to the Cooper Discoverer AT/3. The reviews I read and watched said it has good wet road traction and does decent off road. My experience for the last 50k miles on them supports that conclusion.

I love the Hankook Dyanpro AT-M's on my 4Runner, they might be what you're looking for but there are several good options out there. They've been on my truck for 12,000 miles and as of last week they all had 7/32" tread left so they should last a while. Noise levels and wet/snow traction is very good as well.

Hankook’s VentusPrime 3 is a solid tyre and won’t break the bank. When my mother was changing away from her Goodyear EG’s like you have at the minute, they’re what I stuck on for her. Solid tyre with solid reviews behind it.

I have taken 3 tires to track events on my R: Dunlop ZII Star Specs, Bridgestone RE71R and Michelin PSS. I also ran version 1 Hankook RS3 tires on my BMW for both HPDE and autocross events. ZII Star Specs: excellent tread life (9-10 HPDE days @ ~2 hours track time/day), very good dry traction, good wet traction, wide temperature range RE71R: fair tread life (5 HPDE days), excellent dry traction, good wet traction, wide temperature range PSS: I used these for one event as a rain tire as my expectation is that they will not tolerate the sustained heat that a dry session will produce. Good dry traction, excellent wet traction, limited temperature range RS3: very good dry traction, unknown wet traction, limited temperature range; i.e.: they need lots of heat before they get sticky (craptastic for autoX) If I had to pick one tire for HPDE events, it would be the ZII's and that is what is currently on my car. Tires cost money and I value tread life over outright performance and the wear characteristics make the Dunlops about half the cost of the Bridgestones. If someone else is buying my tires, then I'll go with the RE71R's. For autocross use only in a street tire class, then the RE71R's, no question. i have not tried the BFG Rival or Rival S, but based on friends experiences I would expect them to be somewhat similar to the ZII and RE71R, respectively.

Got some Hankook "100000 miles" H727 on the beater Honda. Within 3-4 years, or 50k miles later they're all shot. Tread is mostly gone. At the end I had a slow leak from cracks etc. The rubber ripped at the edges exposing the cord and leaks slowly, then rather quickly when it let go.
