Opinion from outside the UK

Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 tyres have a really good traction on both dry and wet surface. I would say that they are even better than equivalent Michelin tyres, which are considered to be the best. Generally speaking these are great tyres dedicated especially to small and light cars I guess. All in all I think it would not be a problem to mount them on a heavier RWD vehicle. My brother has Hankook tyres in his car and he is very satisfied with the quality. Over time I changed them for Michelin tyres and I must say I do not feel a significant difference. Both Hankook and Michelin are superior brands that offer a premium quality products. Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

I had Michelin Sport Cup 2 tyres with the width 335 previously mounted on my car. They were good only in temperatures above 25 degrees C. Below this temperature they were slippery. Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 are definitely better. The grip is perfect in temperatures between 20 and 25 degrees C. In lower temperatures it is better to have winter or all-season tyres. If you have a powerful car, the tyres should be rather soft as soft compound tyres stick to the road much better than standard rubber compound products. If you want to drive fast and safe, these Hankook tyres are excellent for you. I do recommend them. Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

I wanted to mount new tyres on my vehicle before I go on my holidays. I was looking for some Toyo or Vredestein tyres. However I chose Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117. When I compared them with Fuldas (I bought my car with Fulda tyres, which had 6mm tread depth), I was really impressed. These two are as different as chalk and cheese. Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 tyres are very silent, they have a good grip. Until now I have not noticed an aquaplanning phenomenon. The car is very stable at high speed (over 130 mph). In my second car I have Hankooks K115 and I am extremely happy with their quality. Read more Collapse

Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 are medium-class tyres intended for passenger cars. They are distinguished by a very high quality and are available at attractive prices.

Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 tyres offer a very good grip both on a dry and wet surface. The driving inspires confidence and the driver-tyre communication remains at a high level.

The high performance of the tyre comes from its asymmetrical tread pattern. It consists of two sections responsible for different groups of performance. The external section is responsible for maintaining stability during manoeuvring, and the external section – for water drainage.

Protection against aquaplaning is provided by the wide circumferential grooves. They efficiently drain water from under the crown ply which translates into improved vehicle stability and better responses to wheel movements.

The engineers who designed Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 took care to give an even distribution of pressures acting on the tyre structure. As a result, the tread wears out slowly and evenly, which allows the use of the full spectrum of performance during the entire life of the tyre.

Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 summer tyres were created using a modern rubber compound that increases the road contact area and reduces the tyre weight, which makes for lower fuel consumption.

If you are looking for reliable tyres with high performance available at an attractive price, Hankook Ventus S-1 Evo2 K-117 is the perfect choice.
