Tyre reviews Hankook K135 Ventus Prime 4. Page 5 1648

Excellent tires! I expected it to be worse, but no! Quiet, hold the road well. I definitely recommend them. No hum at all 👍

Handle dry roads well. Due to the high profile, they are soft and do not feel the rut. But on old asphalt, they are quite noisy

Very soft and comfortable tires, much more pleasant than Michelin, noise isolation is also excellent

Good afternoon everyone.
I'm writing this review after what you could call a season.
The quality of Hankook has deteriorated significantly—the Korean-made ones I had before never caused any issues, but these are from China...
I don't mind production being localized in China, but the defects here are obvious.
They assembled the wheels for me, minimal balancing weights needed—great, I thought. The first few meters—wow, so quiet and smooth. But as soon as I got on the highway and accelerated to 80 km/h, vibration started from the wheels. Hm, I thought, maybe they settled—perhaps I'll rebalance them. A few days later, after returning from the cottage, I went back to the tyre fitting shop—balanced again, all within tolerance. Back on the highway—vibration again... What's going on? I returned to the service center, put them back on the machine—checked them out, and the tyres were egg-shaped (added a video, pity only one can be uploaded), and all four wheels were like that. I mounted different tyres on my rims—no more vibration at all.... I contacted Mosavtoshina, arranged to come in for an inspection. On the scheduled day, I arrived—yes, free tyre fitting during inspection, but in the end they said all wheels were within acceptable limits for runout/vibration, etc., and that the fact they're egg-shaped and bouncing is somehow normal...
Everyone draws their own conclusions, but I personally do not recommend buying this tyre from this seller.
Wishing everyone all the best!

I drove 1600 km on them and then sold the car. Mostly drove on highways at 90–110 km/h. Encountered wet conditions only once. I can't say anything negative about them during this period; everything was quite satisfactory. For the past 10 years prior to these, I used Continental PremiumContact 5 and 6 in summer.

The tyre is soft. This is good for those who value softness and smoothness. Previously, I had a Bridgestone — I liked it for being stiff and grippy on asphalt. This Hankook has undeniable advantages: quietness and significantly better performance in water. Thanks to its softness, it absorbs all minor road irregularities, but because of this, intensive steering will have a "delay" — the soft sidewall makes itself known. Reliability and wear resistance will become evident over time. And of course, the price is also a plus!

A quality, comfortable, soft and quiet tire for a smooth and moderately calm ride in the style of Volvo. At 120 everything is fine. I don't participate in races and tests. Based on personal feelings, the characteristics correspond to those declared by the manufacturer. I'm satisfied with the purchase.

Changed wheels, the tires are great, soft, quiet. The only thing that seemed to me is that they are narrower than the ones I had before, although the size is the same. 225-50-17 would be just perfect!

Tire fire. I drove on it in heavy rain in a rut at 110 km/h and in the heat at 160, on different surfaces in different conditions at different speeds. And now, when in the morning there is treacherous almost icy dew on the road. Not once did I feel that the tire was letting me down, provided that everything is balanced and adjusted. The rut depends on the depth. You don't feel a small rut in the rain, but sometimes we come across such that nothing will help and you feel like you're losing control. I exploited the season hard, drove 30 thousand. I didn't notice any wear. Noise doesn't bother me.

Bought in the spring, drove through the summer, the tires have shown themselves only from the positive side. Not rigid, do not float, perfectly hold the track, not noisy, perfectly balanced. When buying, there were doubts about the fact that the tire is made in China, but time shows that the manufacturer responsibly treats all production branches and monitors the quality! Also, I want to note the excellent work of the seller - everything is at the highest level! I definitely recommend both the tires and the seller.
