Feel unsteady cornering at high speeds. The biggest surprise, they're very quiet.

Good tyres that are a bit noisy but hold well. Wet grip isn't that great with them losing traction fairly easily if you put your foot down a little, even inadvertently.

Can't say a lot about these tyres as only had a short time. Not the best ride especially when fitters put 41 Kpa in tyres when fitting. Tyres seem ok.

Thank you Tyroola, the Hankook tyres that I purchased are fantastic & so quiet & excellent in all weather conditions. Will be offing my tyres through Tyroola in the future. Excellent & hassle free service & excellent delivery time. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to buy tyres to buy them through Tyroola. Thank you once again, so happy with everything.

While I have used these tyres for around 12 months now, and note they are not XL rated, I would return to XL rates tyres to ensure the cornering performance return to that of the previous tyres. For the majority of drivers owning my type of motorcar this would not be an issue, however this would be my real world assessment. Over all the tyres are good regarding their performance with daily use while I would infact complete enquiries to establish whether Hankook offer a XL variant or such-like. Certainly worth considering should other be unsure on this brand and type.

Why This Tyre?

What's the Pros And Cons?


Hankook Ventus S1 EVO2 K117 UTQG 280 A A

Compare and Rate Your Tyre on its Treadwear, Traction, and Temperature

tyre-size

280 A A

•  280 Treadwear:
This grade represents the tyre's expected life/duration, ranging between 100 to 1000. Usually, the higher the treadwear rating, the longer the tyre life.

•  A Traction:
This grade represents the tyre's capability to stop on wet asphalt and pavement. Ratings are expressed in letter form, with AA being the highest and C as the lowest.

•  A Temperature:
This grade represents the tyre's heat resistance ability, with A as the highest and C as the lowest. Heat build-up causes the rubber to break down faster, which can cause blowouts. The higher the temperature rating, the longer the tyre life and the higher the speed rating.

The Hankook Ventus S1 EVO2 K117 is an Asymmetrical Tyre


tyre-size

Asymmetrical tread patterns combine different tread types to deliver maximum wet and dry road grip via its inner and middle tread, while outside, larger and rigid tread blocks dominate the design to improve cornering.

To avoid fitting mistakes, asymmetrical tyres are labelled "outside" and "inside only" so you know if they will face your vehicle or out.

The Hankook Ventus S1 EVO2 K117 is a Silent Tyre

tyre-size

Also known as low–noise or noise–reducing tyres, this tyre is designed to produce less noise than traditional tyres while driving.

Noise–canceling technologies include:

•  Advanced tread designs:
Optimizes air flow in the tyre grooves for a quiet ride.

•  Specialized rubber tread compounds:
Absorbs road vibrations for less noise.

•  Made with sound absorbing materials:
Special polyurethane foam layers inside the tyre reduce noise and absorb vibrations.

Hankook Run-Flat Tyre

The Hankook Ventus S1 EVO2 K117 is available in a run-flat version, allowing you to drive further on a flat. Thanks to reinforced sidewalls, it can support the vehicle's weight even with air loss.

With a run-flat tyre, you can still travel up to around 80 kilometres at a maximum speed of 80 kilometres per hour without changing your flat tyre. We recommend installing a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) to detect tire pressure changes and take appropriate action.

With a Hankook Run-Flat tyre, you enjoy peace of mind and more fuel efficiency since there's no need to carry a spare tyre and tools in your boot.
