Tires Hankook or YOKOHAMA

I just put two on our Lincoln MKC. and they ride nice.

I drive a 2015 Fit with Avid Ascend GT tires. It can handle the midwest snow just fine. My last set of 4 lasted me a little over 36k miles / 4.5 years with some poor road conditions in the city and lots of highway driving.

I have Yokohama Avid Ascend GTs on my 15. I have 195/55R16s and I don't want to go any wider than that.

My experience with them has been very positive. They have more than enough lateral grip for autocross and tearing up back roads, but are still solid feeling in the frequent rainstorms of the east coast. And while we don't get that much snow where I am, it handles that well enough as well.

My avid ascends have been great for the last couple runs. I am at 225k miles almost. Had three pair. Only complaint is that I didn't get very near the advertised warranty mileage. More like 50k per set.

Hankook su best buy gume, pogledaj testove guma, uvek su tu negde sa premium brendovima po ocenama, a jeftinije su dosta. Ja baš imam 205/65/15 hankook ventus prime, evo od marta 2018, i dalje su kao nove.

Did the switch today. Ill try to report back on range. over original 47.5K miles, i was getting 289 kw/mile on 2020 LR MY with 20 inch inductions and OG goodyears. Madison Wi weather pattern. I am pretty fanatical about maxing out range on highway (drafting behind sprinter vans, etc) so curious to see what happens. Even if range stays the same, worth it for tire cost reduction, comfort, and pothole protection. I plan on using these year round as I am not a fast or aggressive driver and just want cheaper tires and better winter performance than the horrible good years.

I went with the Hankook (I know you said you didn't want them but wanted to share my experience) and have been very happy with them. Live in Sweden and we have this winter received unusually much of both black ice and deep snow. The Hankook's have worked surprisingly well during this winter as well as the dryer and warmer period before the winter arrived (got them after summer).

So 5 thousand miles ago (at 50K miles) I finally replaced those Bridgestones with the Hankooks because they were the only ones that I could find that seemed to check all the boxes; that said, it was a huge gamble as I'd never tried Hankooks before on any vehicle and knew virtually nothing about them.

And wow did it pay off. I think I measured that interior sound levels have dropped about 5 dB at 70 mph (from 70 dB to 65 dB); ride comfort is extraordinarily improved to the point that it feels like a newer build Model Y with their improved suspension (I know because I've rented them via Hertz a few times); and crucially -- and this is coming from somewhat of a tire geek here -- I have never, ever experienced such astonishing hydroplaning resistance before. During our recent California storm (Feb 2024) I had the chance to drive through absolutely bucketing, torrential conditions on the freeway, and standing water that would have previously turned our car into a boat were carved through like an icebreaker ship through, er, ice. Or a hot knife through butter. Whatever.

And yes, best of all, our (still inexplicably dismal) range has jumped a whopping 34% or so on average, from about 145 mi to about 195 mi

Jmitchelltfo said: The Hankook S1 Evo 3 is listed as an ultra high performance summer tire. I ran them on a previous car and they were mediocre at best.

I did not like this tires on a previous car I had. Did not last long and terrible in snow.
