I would have no hesitation is recommending these tyred. The only issue I can see is the sidewalls are prone to damage if you touch a kerb when parking. But that is also likely to be part of the reason they are compliant over road imperfections round town. They are wearing well i have noticed the rears are wearing faster in the middle despite being at Jaguar recommended pressures though the difference is only 1mm when compared the outer and inner sections of tread.

The Hankook run flats are a very good alternative to the regular Bridgestone tyres. I have found they grip and run very good.

These are the second Hankooks I have ridden on and I am satisfied with both tyres. I cannot recommend enough.

Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 tyres have a really good traction on both dry and wet surface. I would say that they are even better than equivalent Michelin tyres, which are considered to be the best. Generally speaking these are great tyres dedicated especially to small and light cars I guess. All in all I think it would not be a problem to mount them on a heavier RWD vehicle. My brother has Hankook tyres in his car and he is very satisfied with the quality. Over time I changed them for Michelin tyres and I must say I do not feel a significant difference. Both Hankook and Michelin are superior brands that offer a premium quality products.

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

As for the tire 255/17 is not expensive, but well on their travels.

I wanted to mount new tyres on my vehicle before I go on my holidays. I was looking for some Toyo or Vredestein tyres. However I chose Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117. When I compared them with Fuldas (I bought my car with Fulda tyres, which had 6mm tread depth), I was really impressed. These two are as different as chalk and cheese. Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 tyres are very silent, they have a good grip. Until now I have not noticed an aquaplanning phenomenon. The car is very stable at high speed (over 130 mph). In my second car I have Hankooks K115 and I am extremely happy with their quality.

My car performs well in the city and on the motorway, even at high speeds, and I am satisfied with the tyres overall.
