Tyre reviews Hankook K120 Ventus V12 Evo2. Page 2 286

Hello! Before this, I used the previous version of this Hankook K110 Ventus V12 EVO R17 on my BMW E60 2.5 rear-wheel drive - it was better, stuck like a rock always: 245 km/h - easily, in rain - nothing, no aquaplaning, 90 degree turn on braking - piece of cake! After selling the car, I bought a Skoda Octavia A7 1.8T and decided to put on

225/45R17 I replaced them with Federal 595.

First impression, very weak longitudinal grip properties.

Sidewall is unacceptably soft: tires buckle in sharp turns, at high speed, large skids are very distracting, and easily puncture to the rim.

There are also pluses, they start sliding smoothly and predictably on wet asphalt.

Also, when they were new, they started sliding smoothly on dry pavement, but as they wore out, they started cracking when locked up

Wheels 205/55 R16. Previously drove on Michelin 215/55 R16 for four seasons and wore them out to zero mileage. Bought Hankook K 120 Ventus V12 Evo2 (of course, on Moscow tires). Ran on them a total of 6000. The longest trip was Murmansk-St. Petersburg and back. In the Leningrad Region, I caught quite a few potholes in the asphalt, but no blisters were found.

I bought it instead of my previous Ventus V12 Evo.
The price was also enticing.
I'm using a set of different widths.
Front: 225/45/17
Rear: 235/45/17
In this size, of course, there is some understeer. The tyre is sufficiently soft and long-lasting. On rough asphalt, there is a noticeable noise. But not a rumble. The

Very worthy tires! The car has 260 horsepower, the grip is excellent, the handling is top-notch. Not prone to bulging, I hit serious potholes on a 40-profile and nothing happened. I drove 40,000 km on them and sold them together with the car.

Overall I'm very pleased. Wanted a bit more sport on dry, but as for noise and comfort, it's just fine for me. Pleasantly surprised how good it handles on the wet, absolutely no aquaplaning, doesn't hydroplane, doesn't lose traction, brakes well.

I bought these tires in 2015 and I'll be switching to them since, after a run of approximately 45,000 km, the tread still has at least a season left, possibly even two.

The tires are very soft, and they hold steady in turns, although I do notice a slight bias compared to my 215/45 R17 S-Drive Yokohama tires in the same size, which I attribute to the higher profile.

On a wet road, they performed immediately!

I bought this tire on my BMW 7, but after a couple of days I felt a vibration. I went to a tire shop, they mounted the tire on a machine, the wheel was perfectly round, but the tire was egg-shaped. I didn't hit any potholes, even small ones. I'm buying a K120 set for my second car, I really liked the tire, but I will think twice next time.

Hello, I recently purchased a set of BMW F10 spacers in the size 245/35/20 Front and 285/30/20 Rear. These tires replaced the Dunlop Sp Sport Maxx GT Run Flat.

1) The comfort level has increased significantly. The seams on the road or rough asphalt are almost completely imperceptible compared to the stiff Dunlop. The noise level of the tires has also decreased.

2) There is no difference in handling in city mode, but

Best value for money! No questions about the tire, behaves predictably. Hit a pothole a couple of times, thought it's all over. BUT nope, all good! Highly recommended, great tire!
