The Maxxis Victra Sport 5 and Hankook Ventus S1 Evo3 K127 are two summer type tyres manufactured in CN and KR respectively. They are both known for their performance and quality. However, based on multiple tests and reviews, there are several notable differences.
The Maxxis Victra Sport 5 scored a total rating of 69% on our website. It performed particularly well in the "Wet circle cornering" test by Autobild, and in "Wet handling - objective" by ACE, highlighting its prowess in wet conditions. However, it struggled a bit in dry conditions, specifically mentioned in the autobild 2023 summary as having 'delayed response on dry track'. This tyre did not replace any previous model and is manufactured by Maxxis.
On the other hand, the Hankook Ventus S1 Evo3 K127, known for its exceptional performance especially on wet roads, achieved an impressive rating of 74%. This model particularly stood out in the "Wet braking" test by ACE and Autobild. It also features as first equipment on several prestigious models like the Audi Q8, Porsche Cayenne, and BMW X3. However, the autobild 2023 summary noted its 'below-average mileage', which may lead to early replacement. Just as with the Maxxis, this Hankook model didn't replace any previous tyre and it's made by Hankook.
In direct comparison tests, the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 ranks higher than the Maxxis Victra Sport 5 in most categories. For instance, in the Die Reifentester and ACE tests, both tyres tied in 4th and 7th position respectively. However, in the Autobild test with a total of 50 tyres involved, Hankook held a substantial lead, taking 10th position while Maxxis lagged to the 20th. Further, according to AutoMotorSport, Hankook's performance in 'Wet braking', 'Wet handling', and 'Dry lane changing' was superior, earning it a 3rd position in their tests as opposed to Maxxis's 9th rank.
In conclusion, both the Maxxis Victra Sport 5 and Hankook Ventus S1 Evo3 K127 have their strengths and weaknesses. The Hankook reigns supreme in most tests, especially in wet braking and handling but falls short in terms of mileage. On the contrary, the Maxxis Victra Sport 5 excels in the Wet circle cornering test, highlighting its superior control in wet conditions, but suffers from a delayed response on dry tracks.
