Hankook Ventus V12 evo2 K120 - User reviews

I bought those tyres at the beginning of the year. What I immediately noticed was that all these bands are much less comfortable than the tyres that I had before, the Dunlop Sport Maxx. Mainly because the tyres are not well rounded, so the tyres start to bounce and wobble. I thought I could get used to this, but after I’ve put my winter wheels underneath it is a pleasure to drive again. No more bumping. In addition, fuel consumption is about 0.5l per 60miles. It is positive that Hankook Ventus V12 evo2 K120 are safe tyres with ample grip on dry and wet roads. Furthermore, they look good, and the wear indicator is a useful feature. They are slightly noisier (About 3-4 dB) than the tyres that I had before, but I knew at purchase.

in the dry and wet, these tyres proper dug in and got me out some hard taken corners and tricky bends, only thing i'd change is get some rim protectors but apart from that, can't really complain, probably the reason i didn't go into any barriers on the track lol

The only tyres I've ever fitted on my roadster that didn't need bedding in...great grip from the moment they were fitted. Only done about 2000kms so can't vouch for longevity. I'll be buying these tyres again......

Good grip on wet and dry housing, but is off (bad) then vibrating a lot even though I made to balance. Are directional therefore can not be turned from right to left unless deleting the circle.

I'm very happy with those tires, the grip and control of the car is excellent. Minor issue is that they are slightly loud and bit hard (I have XL version which needs to be inflated bit more)

The tires are quieter than the original small van tires but suppose they are sweeter than the wear rate appears high, but of course there is always a compromise. Please note that I only use them as summer tires.
