5/5

Hankook Kinergy Eco (K425)

Excellent traction in any weather conditions, and there is minimal road noise.

5/5

Hankook Kinergy Eco (K425)

Given the circumstances involving COVID-19, doing well.

5/5

Put these on my little runaround in the spring and they have been spot on so far. Quiet around town and they do not roar on the motorway like the budget ones I had before. Grip in the wet is fine, the car stops when I need it to and it feels steady through roundabouts. The steering is light, which suits the car. I have noticed the fuel gauge dropping a bit slower too, though that could just be my driving. Not much wear showing after a few thousand miles. Happy with them for the money.

5/5

Kumho WinterCraft WP51

I've been satisfied with them during our drives. Due to the lockdown, I haven't racked up many miles, but they are as expected.

5/5

Hankook Kinergy Eco (K425)

The tyres appear to have some tread left and are still acceptable.

5/5

Hankook Kinergy Eco (K425)

Excellent grip on wet surfaces.

5/5

Hankook Kinergy Eco (K425)

No problems, these tyres fit the car perfectly.

3/5

Hankook Kinergy Eco (K425)

These tyres seem to be noisy and not very durable.

5/5

Hankook Kinergy Eco (K425)

Works great in all weather conditions.

4/5

Hankook Kinergy Eco (K425)

I've been very pleased with the tyres, but since I sold the car, I can't comment further on them now. If I have to buy tyres again, I will surely look for your prices online. Thank you.
