Provides excellent grip in all conditions, rarely see traction control light come on. Solid handling, bump absorption not the best as with all run flats.

The car can be driven with confidence on these tyres, absolutely no drawbacks. They stick to the road amazingly on the corners, car behaves very well. I recommend these tyres and if I have to buy new ones, I'll get only those.

BUT, they are already half worn at 8k miles. Be lucky if these last to 15k miles. Not what I expected from Hankook.. Use Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 and they lasted 26k miles on the front on the same car with 18 inch wheels..

We must keep the pressure on the upper limit recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. It improves directional stability.

Hello, I am a taxi driver and these tyres surprised me... I tried these tyres and I'm amazed, drove them over 30,000 km and I still have some 4 or 5 thousand before they have to be replaced. The price does not reflect quality, they should cost much more for what they offer. On both wet and dry they feel great, noise level is slightly high at first but then they become ideal. I sincerely recommend them.

I'm very happy with the tyre in all driving conditions.Of course, I didn't drive with it at the Hockenheimring. There are other tyres for that. In terms of price/performance ratio, the tyre comes out on top compared to other brands.
