Ranked #5 of 7
Securing a middle-of-the-pack 5th place out of 7 contenders, the Hankook Ventus S1 evo Z K129 demonstrated commendable capabilities in the recent evaluation, earning a 'Good' final rating. This tyre stood out for its sporty prowess, exhibiting agile steering response and robust aquaplaning resistance, along with impressively short braking distances on wet surfaces. Particularly impressive was its top performance in longitudinal aquaplaning, where it outperformed competitors. However, it was not without its drawbacks; a notable weakness in rear axle lateral guidance led to a pronounced oversteering tendency, affecting both wet and dry conditions. This characteristic requires attention, particularly for drivers valuing consistent handling stability.
