Tires Hankook or SUMITOMO

They've been performing great with no issues. But as you can tell from me getting 42,000 miles out of my original Michelin Pilot Sport tires... I don't drive very hard. Tires come with 10/32 tread depth and today, with 53,000 miles on the car... America's Tire said they're still at 8/32 tread depth after 11,000 miles. Anyhow... tires are holding up well... don't seem to be any more noisy or quiet than the original OEM spec tire... and are holding up great.

I went from Sumitomo HTR Z2 tires to Michelin Pilot Super Sport and was left very disappointed in the Michelins. Initial turn in suffered (slight delay from steering input to vehicle changing direction). The Michelins are like sticky gummy bears, the Sumitomos had much stiffer side walls and that made driving far more enjoyable even though they were less sticky.

Eu am pus asa pe 18 si am prins uscat si umed momentan, o sa vad la iarna.

Nu mi s-au parut zgomotoase si nici la consum n-am observat vreo diferenta.

Had them for about 5k km. I liked it. Very good traction on dry n rain. Very quiet.

I bought Hankook I*cept 3 winters and they were cheaper than some others in my size, still expensive but rated way higher than the rest. God damn they’re incredible. My 340i X-drive only slips when I want it to, even here in Alberta, Canada where we get loads of black ice and also tons of slushy days.

I actually like the Hankook ion as so far, quiet 10% more range, and comfortable vs Conti and seem to handle well.

I tracked my 95 Miata with original, stock, 26yr old suspension with 200tw hankooks and endurance racing pads, roll bar and 6 pt harnesses was all I ran for the longest, and keep up with faster cars in intermediate/ occasionally advanced in my 95hp, 2750lb car

Nobody ever talks about Hankook Dynapro AT2's and I dont know why. I havent really tested mine on tough trails, but they have been great on rutted out fire roads and on city streets. So far so good.

I feel that the Kinergy GT tires are mediocre at best for most conditions. Had them on our 2017 and they still had at least 4-5 32nds of tread when we turned in the lease at 38,000 miles, but at least 10k of those miles were with snow tires. I think 35-40k would be the max upper range and probably hitting the wear bars by then.

I have the Ventus V12s on my SLK in the Bay Area too. Very similar tire. They absolutely suck at displacing water. I can legit lose the back end in heavy rain at medium speeds. The grip and launch in the summer is great, but they are simply not designed for water displacement.
