The Hankook K105, a seasonal tire released by the renowned South Korean manufacturer, is designed for installation on passenger cars of classes "B" and "C".
The asymmetrical tread pattern design has determined the excellent operating characteristics of the tire when driving on various road surfaces. Thanks to the presence of four longitudinally arranged grooves and diagonal channels, the Hankook K105 Ventus Prime tire demonstrates high resistance to aquaplaning, ensuring stable and safe movement on wet roads. Due to the solid central rib design, the tire has excellent directional stability and handling.
Wide lateral zones of the tread with a rounded profile provide the tire with excellent grip in turns, significantly increasing resistance to uneven wear due to high resistance to deformations occurring during lateral acceleration. And the separation of shoulder zones of the tread by transverse grooves into separate blocks, in addition to increasing the efficiency of water drainage, significantly improves traction characteristics, as well as contributes to an increased level of comfort due to reduced noise and increased softness when driving.
