Tires Hankook or Nokia

I loved my Nokian Winter tires on my old 3000 GT VR4. That thing was unstoppable. They are noisy on dry roads though.

So my OEM Hankook tires, inflated normally to 40psi were wearing down on the edges of the tire. The look of the tire is amazing. Completely changes the look of the truck. The tires didn’t have any more appreciable noise - I listened intently at 40 mph and might have heard a bit more

With about 28,000 miles on my 2022 SEL AWD, it was time to replace the the Michelin's. I picked the Ions because it seemed like Hankook did their homework in terms of designing a tire with range and longevity considerations. Initial thoughts:

-VERY QUIET. These are somehow substantially quieter than the OEM wheels. Noise from bumps and rough roads are somehow soaked up as well. I'm impressed.

-Smooth and planted. Rolling on these at moderate speeds feels like floating on a cloud. Steering and acceleration/braking felt great too, no issues feeling like there's no grip.

-Didn't have too much rain experience, but it seemed to handle wet conditions fine, about the same as OEM.

-One con I noticed: These have a foam lining on the inside.

I've been really happy with the Nokian Encompass AW01s on my Volt though. They are an all weather 3MP rated tire that's been very good to us

Depois de muita pesquisa em relação qualidade preço escolhi os Hankook Ventus Prime 3 K125.

Go with the hankooks, they wear like iron.

If you are new to tracking and do end up heat cycling them out, they are super consistent, which is way better to learn from.

I have used both all-weather tires (Nokian WR) and winter tires (Continental Viking Contact 7). The all-weather tires are adequate to handle the worst parts of Westwood Plateau and snowy days on My Seymour.

I have these on my SUV. They are All Weather with the snowflake symbol. Excellent snow traction and excellent in the rain.

So here is my take everything is great except lifespan. But since I have tried it in different climates I can only anecdotally say maybe the heat of SoCal wore down the tires. I drive regular not aggressive on a 2022 M3LR and for the first 12,000 miles wear was 1/32 then all the sudden it lost 3/32 in 6000 miles so now I'm at 5/32 with even wear.

my wife hates the tires .the m+s is horrible in the snow.
