Tyre reviews Ikon Character Aqua SUV. Page 1 187

I have driven over 7000 km, both on the highway and in the rain, and at speeds of up to 170 km/h. The positives include: it's soft, reasonably quiet, and handles well in the rain. It's a good option for city driving on good roads and at moderate speeds.

The negatives include: it's soft, I got one puncture from a pothole or bridge joint. The sidewall is somewhat soft, so you need to drive carefully. At high speeds, the softness also adds to the instability.

Other characteristics: small pebbles get stuck in the tread and are held very tightly. The effect of the stones in the summer is not the most pleasant experience.

Hello everyone! I replaced the Kumho HP 91 with the Ikon Character Aqua because the Kumho didn't perform well in the rain and caught the rut, and its noise was also a problem. The Ikon is a step above and the price is lower. The ride is smooth, quiet, and I'm very satisfied, and as for the wear, time will tell.

Very high-quality tires. The corners do not wear out, they are not noisy, soft. The road and turns are held perfectly (both dry and in starting rain, and wet). There is no aquaplaning at a puddle depth of 2cm, at a speed of up to 120km/h, I haven't tried higher. I recommend 👍

Decided to give Russian tires a chance. The first impressions are quite good. They are fairly quiet and confidently hold the road. Haven't had a chance to test them in the rain yet.

They wrote that it's noisy - nothing of the kind. I don't see any difference in quietness and smoothness on dry road from the previous two sets of Michelin Lattitude Tour HP. I haven't braked sharply yet, haven't aquaplaned through puddles...

Pros: Low noise, good road holding
Cons: Not identified yet. The main drawback is the price.
I'm putting it on my second car. So far, only positive emotions. It behaves well on both asphalt and dirt. In the rain at reasonable speeds, it does not hydroplane. It holds the road perfectly.

If you drive calmly, very calmly, the tire will be excellent!!
For active driving, it's a dangerous tire!!!
I bought it due to its good aquaplaning characteristics and the tire behaves perfectly, I'm completely satisfied with this parameter, but I didn't expect and never encountered the following problem.
Unpredictability when changing lanes? Okay, I can live with that, I'm not driving a sports car, I can drive smoothly.
But the extreme situation starts when you brake sharply, the tire seems to lose its geometry and sidewall stiffness, and not all 4 wheels at the same time, but always differently, sometimes it pulls to one side, then suddenly to the other, and if you're not careful, you can easily skid into oncoming traffic.
I do not recommend buying, it's a dangerous tire!
Even if you drive calmly, on the highway at 150-200 km/h, braking hard will be extremely unstable!
*It also wears out quickly, it will last for a maximum of 2 seasons with constant driving.

Took new ones, everything is fine, almost - soft, great handling, but VERY NOISY, strong noise from them compared to the previous Cooper, given that the wheel arches have been noise-reduced, after 100 km it's already impossible to have a quiet conversation in the car

Replaced the standard Hankook, the difference in acoustic comfort is significant. Didn't notice any changes in handling. Also no problems on wet roads. Let's see how it will be with wear resistance. For now, I recommend using it.

Great ride on the highway from Karelia with a temperature of around 0 and immediately to Astrakhan at 25. The rest around the city and intercity.
