The summer tire Hankook K117A Ventus S1 evo2 SUV is positioned by the South Korean manufacturer as a high-performance model for premium-class SUVs. It stands out for its perfect balance between all the main operational properties, combining handling on dry and wet surfaces with fuel efficiency and acoustic comfort.
Multifunctional longitudinal grooves
A distinctive feature of the tire's tread design is the prevalence of seemingly insignificant details that have a high efficiency. One of them is the longitudinal drainage grooves. Their side walls are inclined and lack any sharp corners. This eliminates the occurrence of swirls in water flows, increasing the throughput of the grooves. On their bottom, there are narrow longitudinal recesses. They are multifunctional, as they also increase resistance to aquaplaning and, in addition, increase heat dissipation from the tread, preventing the tire from overheating at high speeds. This property is further enhanced by the circular recesses in the shoulder areas.
Improved traction properties and reduced rolling resistance
The tire's tread is made of a compound with a very high content of new-generation silica. This component significantly improves traction properties, especially on wet surfaces, while reducing rolling resistance and wear.
Steel belt
One of the key differences from the "basic" model is the design of the carcass. In particular, it contains a belt made of steel cord. Such a "substrate", occupying all the space between the sidewalls, allows the tire to maintain its original shape while being under constant deformation. This improves handling, giving it stability and reliability.
