Compare Hankook summer tyres made in your size:


In our comprehensive review of Hankook summer tyres, we have selected a few standout models to highlight, based on recent tests and evaluations. These selections are aimed to assist customers in making informed decisions when choosing their next set of summer tyres.


The **Hankook Ventus Prime 4** stands out as an impressive successor to the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125. This new touring tyre has received favorable reviews across multiple tests. Both Autobild and ADAC have recognized it for its excellent performance on wet and dry surfaces and commendable aquaplaning resistance. Although it is noted for its average comfort levels, the overall positive performance and value for money make it a top contender.


Another option is the **Hankook Ventus S1 evo Z K129**, particularly noted for its sporty attributes. Performances in recent tests by Autobild highlight its agile handling and effective aquaplaning reserves. However, it has been observed to oversteer, which buyers should consider in perspective of driving conditions and requirements.


The **Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 SUV K127A** receives accolades for its dynamic wet handling and comfort on roads, showing slight vulnerabilities in curve aquaplaning and rapid lane-changing stability. Its notable attributes, tested by Autobild and Automotorsport, include excellent dry and wet braking capabilities and a favorable price-performance ratio, making it highly recommended.


Finally, the **Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127**, which fits several premium SUVs as original equipment, has been praised for balanced sporty profiles and fuel-efficient rolling resistance. Despite its decent aquaplaning safety, its kilometer performance is seen as somewhat average. Nevertheless, it continues to be recommended due to its adept handling and braking efficiency.


This collection of Hankook summer tyres offers various advantages suited to distinct driving needs, each with attributes that have been taken into account through recent test results to better guide your selection process.
