Regarding the tyre itself - I'm with the price, definitely better both in terms of road grip and the noise than Presto, which I had previously mounted. It performs well on a wet road, does not lose grip, only a really deep puddle causes a slight skid. During braking it behaves predictably, it is easy to feel the moment of balancing on the verge of the grip and in this field it beats Presto, which very often activated the ABS. Until now, I had the brand's winter tyres bought in December 2013, used in the first winter until late spring, and in the season 2014/2015 founded in November then they traveled all summer and the following winter 2015/2016. In total, 80,000 km passed, of which about 45 thousand in a typical summer season. After removing the front, the tread is flush with the winter wear indicator (2mm left for the TWI), and the rear tyres are still suitable for one winter season, they have about 4mm tread above the "winter" indicator. So I hope that summer Hankooks will be as strong and I will be as happy with them as with the winter tyres of this brand.

I was looking for cheap and good tires to a typical Kompakta. Although small engine because 1.2 and 80hp, but also did not want to buy just any tires. In the end I decided on Hankooki, and no regrets. Very good tire. They have a large stock of traction, really hard to even squeaked in sharp bend. Traction good, both on dry and on wet asphalt. The difference in combustion between the previous Pirelli P3000 is gone, but they're a much quieter. I would recommend to anyone looking for cheap and good tire, I really feel that this is a premium tire segment.

When buying suggested the relation price / quality and rolling resistance. tyres very quiet, at least against the background of the Sava Perfecta / Fulda EcoControl and Bfgoodrich G-grip. Abrasion virtually nil, although it drove a lot. Good lateral support, predictable behavior on wet. tyres very well disperse water. Well also cope with the snow: D what I say here is true ośsniegu 15-20 cm and more compacted, but that was no problem. Low rolling resistance, the car goes lighter than my previous BFGoodrich. Clincher despite wszytsko rather hard and can be perceived inequality.

I was looking for tyres in size 205/55R15 and I have read a lot of reviews in internet about tyres in this size. I aso checked customers reviews on Oponeo onlin shop website and i decided to buy Hankook Kinergy eco K425 tyres. I am very satisfied. I mounted those tyres to my Skoda Octavia and I cant complain. I recommend 100%. The tyres are very quiet and quite comfotable I do not believe that they are worse than a Pirelli tyres wich I had before. They are very good in dry conditions. The tyres also perform well during the rainI read some reviews about these tyres and I know that the braking distances id quite short. it is a very good tyre due to its high durability.I do recommend Hankook Kinergy! The tyres were value for money. It is worth buying!

I bought these tyres in 2011 summer. They were just introduced to the market and thus there was a massive introductory sale, I purchased the whole set with fitting for 124 pound. But I am amazed by this tyre, great grip with very little noise, we drove the car for 30000 km and still 4 mm remaining on the front and 3 mm on the rear, (I swapped the front to the rear at 20000 km), my only better tyres of the same size were Pirelli P7-s they had better cornering grip, they were not so good in wet breaking as these.

Hello. I'm currently finishing a second summer season on Hankook Kinergy eco K425 tyres what means about 16 thousand miles. I use them in my Mazda 6 and I drive to my work every day (about 24 miles daily). It is the road with lots of curves and I drive fairly quickly but without exaggeration. That’s why the treas is quite worn out currently but it is the only drawback of the tyres I think. Great handling on dry, almost perfect and it is not worse on wet. Very good grip in general. No drift or squeak during cornering, generally no surprises. I feel confident and safe even during rain because I have not experienced aquaplaning even when I drove with a high speed during medium rainfall. I recommend to all drivers who appreciate safety. Generally big yes for Hankook Kinergy eco K425 tyres.

I drove on these tires almost 20 thousand. in one season car company on different roads (main and side) rather high speeds and not sparing ich.I am very pleased. Driving on wet and dry cool. Cool suppress inequality. Consumption for my driving style to judge satisfactory. Front from 8 mm to 6 mm went back to 7 mm. I think that in normal use it would be much better. Privately, I must also mention the upcoming season letniaki new and they will be just such Hankooki. Tyres very good quality at an affordable price. There is no need to overpay.

Approached to buy these tires with plenty in reserve, because the company's winter tires are not too good. She convinced me label, and the opinion of "my" vulcanizer, who himself uses these tires and very polecał.Podsumowując-sensational silent tire-Continentale which previously ridden have no chance of Hankookiem. Driving on dry and wet surfaces-some hold dear and full comfort. Do not believe the ads and do not buy premium tires, because you pay only for the company, and nothing extra dostajecie.Szerokiej not all the way, hey.
