Tires Hankook or Firestone

Ok, this is the first time doing some snow driving on the Pro4x with the hankook. I must admit the tires handle snow very well! I thought about airing them down but decided not to. The tires felt really good, and I drove with no issues. They do suck in the rain, but in the snow they handle well.

I'm waiting on my factory tires to get a little more wear on them before I replace them. However, when I do I know I'm going with a much better set of Firestone tires then what the factory put.

Hankook RS4 will last forever, but they are endurance tires - they will be on the slower side of the 200 spectrum.

So I ended up going with the 185/65r14 Hankooks (891 revs/mile) ... Balancing is actually pretty good for a manual bubble-level. Smooth up to ~85mph and then a tiny vibration starts and gets a little worse around 95. That's fine.. I stay under 80mph 99.999% of the time anyway. And speedo is dead-accurate, now, too, for the first time in my 19 years of ownership.

I just put 4x Hankook Kingerys on my 81 240d. 195/70/R14. Decent priced tire that suites SoCal driving. I got about 65k out of these on my rav4 previously.

Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 3 - that's what I've got and swear by. I've done about 10k miles since putting them on in May and I've got about 6mm of tread left at the front.

I replaced my great condition hankook run flats with cheapo firestone weathergrips and they are better in every way. Warm weather, cold weather, rain, snow.. Better traction and ride comfort across the board.

Looks fine other than it’s wet and has other people’s rubber on it. You’re gonna find out that the Indy 500 is not a track tire. So when you push really really hard, it’s gonna get really greasy and loose very quickly.

They are pretty good in dry weather, but absolutely terrible in snow. If you typically encounter snow, invest in snow tires.

Like others have said, I thought they were subpar. In the first 6 months, I swapped them out for the Michelin PS4 All Seasons, worth every penny.
