Tires Hankook or YOKOHAMA

On most cars the RE71RS is probably the most versatile and better wearing. On many cars the Yokohama A052 is the fastest. It depends on what type of car you have, how much camber you can get, are you traction limited, etc.

Based on experience:

Bridgestone

- Makapit at matagal mapudpod

Yokohama

- Makapit din pero mas mabilis mapudpod vs. Bridgestone

I’ve run a couple versions of Yokohamas summer performance tires and always been happy.

If you can get Hankook Ventus V12 EVOs in that size, they're pretty nice for the money IMO.

I’ve got the hankook ions for 800 and perform better than sailun.

I like yokohamas. They last me a really long time

I have hankook Ventus S1 evo3s and they’re great

I’ve had Hankook DynaPro HT on my 06 4Runner for 8 years. No issues, only 40K. Plenty of tread. But time to replace soon.

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

For what it's worth, my Tiguan came with Hankook Ventus Noble 2 - GARBAGE. Honestly, screw VW for choosing the cheapest RFP'd crap. And screw Hankook for making awful, awful tires - shameful. Gone are the days of VWs being factory equipped with Michelin, Pirelli, and Bridgestone.
