When it comes to the comparison of Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 and Vredestein Sportrac 5, there are several factors to consider. Both models are excellent summer tyres, each coming with their own set of strengths and weaknesses based on various tyre tests.
Firstly, the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 tyre has shown remarkable performance, with a test rating of 72%. Manufactured in Hungary, it was used as the first equipment on the Citroën C3 Aircross. Hankook stands out for its exceptional dry handling, as demonstrated in the AutoBild test where it earned 2nd place out of 50 tyres. In the ACE test, it was commended for its Aquaplaning - cross, Dry driving behavior, and low Exterior noise, securing the 4th position out of 11 tyres. This model has now been replaced by the Hankook Ventus Prime 4.
On the other hand, we have the Vredestein Sportrac 5, with an overall rating of 58%. The Sportrac 5 fared well in the ADAC test, coming 8th out of 16 tyres, and 6th out of 11 in the ACE test, where its Dry driving behavior was appreciated. However, there isn't any information on which country it was made, and what vehicle it was first equipped on. Also, unlike the Hankook model, there isn't a newer tyre that replaced this model.
In terms of manufacturer, the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 is produced by Hankook, a leading global tyre company known for its innovative tyre solutions. Whereas, the Vredestein Sportrac 5 is manufactured by Vredestein, a company renowned for their high-quality summer tyres.
In conclusion, while both tyres have proven their worth in different test settings, the Hankook model seems to hold a slight edge overall, with higher test ratings and consistently good performance across a range of conditions. The Vredestein tyre, despite not having as high ratings as the Hankook model, still offers commendable performance especially in dry conditions. Each tyre's performance would greatly depend on the specific requirements and driving conditions of the user.
