Tires Hankook or DUNLOP

Consider the Hankook Ion HT on 21\u201d. They are wonderful by every measure including price, warranty and efficiency.

Everyone I know that has used these tires has absolutely loved them, and I see tons of positive reviews for them online, but despite all that I just can't get over how they look.

Here's the reality, it really really works on the road 6 tires and on the Dunlop Elite 4s. I had all the road versions on my ST1300 and these are the best in the wet so far. The Elite 4s on my wing were phenomenal even on sketchy mountain roads with it pissing rain on us.

But I remember back in the day (PS4s are ancient now) when I swapped from Dunlop SportMaxx RT2s to PS4s and two things stood out - how much mechanical grip they have, and how long they take to warm up.

On cold mornings, they genuinely felt like track slicks. The Dunlops would be "warmed up" and gripping fine by the time I reached the main road - maybe half a mile.

The PS4s, on the other hand, would still feel twitchy and unpredictable halfway to work (~18 miles). It took a good 8-9 miles before they came in. And before they warm up, they are very on/off - loads of mechanical grip, but almost no compound grip, so they can suddenly let go.

Very happy with the Hankook ion Evo AS SUV on the Ariya. The grip is much better in all conditions, even snow. Very quiet, and range has been similar to the Dunlops.

An easy performance mod is lighter wheels with track tires, the stock dunlops are alright but pretty underwhelming for being a 200treadwear tire. If you want better ride quality, switch to a high performance all season.

Imao iste cijelogodisnje ko i vi. Pokazale se ok. Al ako se radi ikakva kilometraža 2 godine su im vrh

Another annoyance were the Fast wearing factory Dunlop tires I swapped out at 12k mi on the odo.

I personally experienced a blow out from Dunlop tires in the 90’s. Although they have improved since then i still wouldnt risk it.

I have a 2023 and love it, but the hankook dynapro at2 tires are the worst I’ve ever experienced. Laughable traction in wet weather, a slight incline would spin the rears no matter what. Worse, they punctured 4 times just from driving on dirt roads. Gravel was opening these things up like they were ziplock bags.
