Tyre reviews Hankook W429 i Pike RS2. Page 81 2025

You get what you pay for !

Good day. I chose these tires after a long search, reading reviews and browsing auto magazine tests. The tire's behavior is ambiguous in urban operation - it's not bad, but when driving outside the city, where roads are not regularly cleaned, you have to worry. The tire is completely unsuitable for snow and slush - it gives the impression that the tire lacks outlets and is floating, wandering. Performance on ice is normal, brakes well.

Mounts

The previous Continental ContiWinterViking 2 was good, snow, black ice, water over the snow on the belly crawling, the studs were all in place for six seasons, I bought the HANKOK W429 I Pike RS2, I was skeptical of the center protector big surface, and so it is slipping, I relied on the rating and price.

Good tires, hold the road well.

Excellent tires, soft, hold well on all types of surfaces. Satisfied with the purchase.

Good tire, soft.

Purchased these tires in early November. They mounted well on the rims and balanced normally with minimal weights. Currently, we are undergoing the break-in period. As for noise, it's quite normal, and the sipes are audible, but not bothersome. We have only driven on dry and wet asphalt so far. Other impressions after the break-in period and operation in various weather and road conditions.

I replaced my Dunlop tires with these, and I can say that they are quieter and don't spin out when cornering. On the track, they hold up great, no understeer, and on wet asphalt, I have no complaints, everything is very predictable. I'm satisfied with the tire, and I would recommend it for purchase.

Good tire at a low price. Road holding is good, handling is excellent. All studs are in place.
