Tires Hankook or Nexen

I have the Nexens on mine and they’ve been fine through 16k miles.

I loved the sur4g from nexxen. I would do a lil burnout when I left my drive way. Warm enough.

I’ve ran the Hankook Ventura V12 Evo2 on previous cars and felt they were perfectly serviceable.

I ran these tires for years in my first gen, Florida heat and rain. They were my go to for daily driving. No idea what everyone has against these tires, they never gave me an issue. Gripped or slipped when i wanted them to.

These used to be go-to tires for the off-season. Great value and grip. I also like them better than the PS4s.

The Ventus V12’s came new on my CPO. I can’t compare them to the OEM Michelin’s, but can tell you that they grip very well! ????

I had a set of Dynapro ATMs on my 2nd gen for several years. They had a 3PMSF rating and worked great in the snow while the tread was still deep (traction obviously degraded as they aged).

Caveat: They were the aftermarket versions. I'm unsure if they're the exact same quality as the OEM tires.

For those who are interested, I had the Hankook ION Evo (Summer) tires installed to replace the stock Pirelli P Zero (PZ4) Elect tires on my Tesla Model 3 Performance ('22). There are pros and cons compared to the stock Pirelli tires, in my opinion:

Pros:

- Quieter (especially on highways)

- More comfortable (damping on uneven road surfaces, but uneven road surfaces also less noticeable in the steering)

- Better grip in rain and wet conditions

- Slightly lighter steering feel

- Slightly easier full acceleration straight of the line

- More efficient (+/- 1% less battery consumption per trip)

Cons:

- Steering feel and response are less direct

- Grip during hard cornering is not great (at least, the limit is simply lower than with the Pirellis)

- Overall sportiness is diminished

I finally got sick of them on my 2019 at about 21k miles with the rainy winter we had in Southern California and slipping all over the place.

I've got about 60k km on my OEM Nexen tires. They are definitely on the way out, they slip on wet roads now when accelerating.
