Tires Hankook or OEM Audi

If cost is an issue, the more economical street tire you can get that has solid track performance is the Hankook RS4. They last forever and are a great tire to learn on.

eu am avut Hankook kynergy 4s fara probleme pe zapada.

I’m at 220k. About 150k were all pilot sports. The ion evos made an immediate impact in sound and efficiency. These are what I will be going forward with on my vehicles from now on.

Just got the Hankook iON ht installed on my Rivian, as of today, there are five different options for the 21-in Wheels: Michelin Defender LTX M/S2, Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season Elect, Bridgestone Alenza Prestige, Yokohama Geolandar A/T4 G018 (all terrain), Hankook iON HT The Yokohama are the only all-terrain option the rest are all season. I personally went with Hankook because of the deal I got and the 80,000 mi warranty.

I had the Hankook ION EV A/S when they first came out on my 2022 Model 3 RWD. Some things to note; Tires lasted just above their tread depth (40K) with rotations every 7K miles, alignment once a year, PSI set to 42 on cold Tires got LOUD as F the last 20K miles before they were worn fully. Like so loud you would think one was flat, but this is stupidly common on all Hankooks I have ever owned even on other vehicles Wh/mi was amazing, average over lifetime was 228Wh/mi during summer, and as low as 175s during winter (in Phoenix AZ)

My 23 had the Hankook OEM tires when I bought it new and changed them with about 45K I believe and they still had tread but one had a slow leak. I consider myself an “aggressive” driver and I only rotated them once in the time. The tech that did it in the parking lot at my office said they didn’t even need rotating. The wear was very even. I went with the Michelin and they are no where near as good as the Hankook. They are worse in wet and dry traction. They howl if there is any hard braking and break loose easily on wet pavement. The Hankooks were also great in the snow (Chicago area) driving 70 miles round trip to the office and back. Very unhappy that I switched. The Hankooks seemed to start getting loud but they wore perfectly even. I will definitely be switching back when the time comes in a year or so. If the Michelins suck in the snow, I’ll bite the bullet and switch back to the Hankooks right away.

I am at 25k in 13 months with 4/32 on my rear and 6/32 on the fronts of my Y Performance (can’t rotate due to staggered wheels). I have the Hankook Ion Evo AS suv tires. Those only start at 8.5/32 new from Tesla vs 10/32 for the replacement version. Not bad, if I was able to rotate I would have averaged 3.5/32 of wear over 25k miles. They still have pretty good traction, was able to fully launch in the recent nor’easter storm with slippage only on painted lines (testing to see how traction is in full rain, pretty impressive). But, there are now turns or on/off ramps that the rear wants to step out when applying a little more power than I should, was able to practically drift it around a ramp during the same storm.

The OEM Hankooks (on my 24') go full slip and slide mode if there's a drop of water on the road anywhere within 3 miles.

I can turn the "heavy steering" wheel with two pinched fingers and just my wrist when driving. It's not a big deal.

Diff breather mod.

Check the rain channels on the roof for cracking paint. Dealer should fix that as it's considered a workmanship warranty, else you can apply clear coat to the spots yourself to seal them when it inevitably cracks again.

If a leaf ever gets under the moulding/gasket around the windshield it can and will sound like your front speakers are crackling and dying when driving past 60 MPH and make your blood pressure go up trying to figure out what the hell is making that noise.

I have the stock Hankook Ventus S1 evo2's in 245/35ZR19 on my 2023 A4. When I test drove the car I noticed a slight pull to the right, requiring slight but steady left steering input. This spring when I swapped back to the summers I noticed the right pull again. Over time the issue has remained, and I've noticed bad tramlining all the time. I feel like I'm constantly fighting the steering on most roads. Also, I highway commute to work and have noticed these tires hydroplane badly in the wet. Because of this I'm planning to get different summer tires next spring.

Imam hankook icept rs3 i mogu reci iako su ocjene dobre guma nije nesto. Pogotovo na kisi je losa.

Zapravo prvu zimu nisam imao problema, drugu zimu su mi malo plivale po mokrom, evo sad pocetak trece i iako izgledaju ko nove najradje bi ih bacio.
