Tyre reviews Hankook W429 i Pike RS2 1818

I decided not to write a review right away, and instead wait until the end of winter.

I took the tyres in summer 2018 before the winter season. In general, I drove not too much, around 2k/3k mileage and mainly city traffic operation mode. However, I need to clarify that in our city they don't spray chemicals, only remove snow with equipment and sprinkle sand if they do it at all)

Before this winter I drove on Cordiant

I purchased the 225/45 17 in size 204 on a 5,000 km (city and highway) cycle. I live in St. Petersburg, and initially thought I had wasted my money on tires with studs, as people say, “there are no winters in this city.” However, reality turned out to be a bit different - mountains of snow dumped on us, making the purchase as timely as possible. In conclusion, I can say that the handling is excellent, the tread

I bought these tires to replace my old Hakkapeliitta 5s (which were past their prime). The tires themselves are very good. After installation, we immediately set off on a trip to Grandfather Frost in Veliky Ustyug. The tires performed well, no complaints (TTT). I didn't notice any significant difference in the car's handling between Nokian and Hankook tires. The tire chains work well on ice (if you drive carefully, of course, and don

Let's start with the fact that there were no winters in 2020 in the Moscow region. There were rains, slush, temperature +5 - +7, and snow fell at night, but it all transformed into puddles during the day. The situation was different in the region, where there was a bit of snow, black ice, and icy rain. Mostly, it was black ice, so the studs were needed more than ever. I took the Hankook W429 for my work

I bought two sets of Hankook W429 i Pace RS2 tyres in 175/70/14 for my Lada 21093 and 155/70/13 for ice racing on a Moskvich 412 at MOSAUITOSHINE. I've been driving the Lada for two weeks now. I carefully broke in the tyres for the first thousand km, then drove another thousand after that. I haven't seen any reviews on the tyres anywhere. The model is new, from

The tires are doing well, they handle well on ice and snow, and they're also braking confidently even on dry asphalt.

They fully justify their cost. Quiet up to 80 km/h, noticeable hum of the tread from 80. Only hear the studs up to 10 km/h. Driven up to 160 km/h. Cornering stability on dry and wet asphalt after 100 km/h is average, have to feather the throttle, especially on wet asphalt. Holds well at high speed on a circular curve on the highway. On a wet track lane slightly pops up. On dry asphalt it drives well for st

I read the reviews... As always, not a straightforward one... So, in order:
Not much to compare to... Aggressive driving style
Pros +
1. Good handling (asphalt, wet, dry, no problem! Snowy mashed potatoes! Snow of any kind! Ice!) exactly as is.
2. Pretty quiet. (summer Hankook is louder)
3. Comfortable ride after 1000km (and the noise goes away

I decided to get a head start on winter tires and in August this year, I acquired new tires, specifically Hankook Winter i*Pike RS2 W429 R16 205/55 91T. The decisive factor was the price/quality ratio. From reviews, I gathered that the tire is at least mediocre. Now, more specifically about Hankook Winter i*Pike RS2. The country of origin is South Korea. The tread is good, wide and well-placed,

I purchased the novelty of the season, 2018. I read the reviews, where everyone is happy with this tire. There is an advertisement on every corner. They wrote that it is a top-class tire at the price of a cheapskate and is actually better than Nokian and Continental. But, alas, no miracle occurred. It’s just a good tire with an excellent price-quality ratio. As soon as I put it on, it was very loud, after 1000 km
