Tires Hankook or Nexen

So my Bridgestone Potenzas got slicked out (lasted 23k km) and a friend reccomended and got me a set of 225-45-XR17 Hankook RS-3 Tires... This hankook tires are rated as Semi-Slicks, and by how they perform, i agree with that... First impressions (compared with Bridgestone Potenzas 225-45-r17): Awesome handling capabilities the car feels so much more responsive and precise in both dry and wet conditions Great Braking You can feel the car generating more negative G force when you slam the brakes Really Confortable to ride and noise levels are low, plus they have a more Solid Feel in the pavement imperfections Overall Conclusions: Way Better Than Bridgestone Potenzas (same sizes and everything) and by far more affordable Definetly the tire to go with in summer conditions

I had the dealer replace the Hankooks that came with my V6 SE Passat with Michelin MXM4 94V rated tires. The difference in ride quality and handling is phenomenal!

I had the dealer swap the Hankooks that were on our new B7 to Conti ProContacts which were on a another B7 in the lot. We have about 1500 miles on car and I can honestly say the car rides quiet.....no more road noise than the B6, and no wind noise.

Kumho tires and Nexen tires are 2 chinese brands I highly recommend. I have both on my vehicles. Kumho on my car,Nexen on my truck.

I have the Hankook iPikes on my Prius and am very happy with them. I've run Michelin Arctic Alpins, Cooper Weathermasters (twice), Firestone Winterforce, Gislaved, and Nokian Haka2's. Each had very minor pros and cons but honestly I didn't find much of a real difference between any of them including the Hakka's which cost twice what the others costs.

The new tires I bought for the Fit's OEM wheels are Hankook Ventus V4 ES. An initial test drive in the Fit was great - smooth, quiet, actually much better at soaking up bumps with these 205/50R16's than with my Yoko 185/70R14 snow tires, which surprised me.

Yes, Hankook Optimo H727. They are CR rated #1 (let the hate fly) and have great reviews on TR and DTD. I got a set for my Golf and I'm VERY happy with them.

I have Hankook Winter I*Pikes in 225/60R16 XL (102 load rating, I think) on my 2003EV. They have worked well for me.

Good for the money.. they are indeed 'budget tires'.. Perform decently on dry.. but wet traction is not all that good and I thought they wore fast.. like 30k miles.. rotated them every 5k..

Got rid of the Hankooks on my SE V6, replaced them with Michelin Primacy with a small Discount Tire trade-in allowance. Ride is maybe a little better, expansion joint thump is a little better, but noise on all but the smoothest asphalt is bad; on concrete, it's almost intolerable.
