Tyres

Has anyone had Hankook tyres on their car and liked them.


I've been getting prices for 205 55 16 91V, and Hankook is the only brand new to me. It seems they're made in Hungary, which may be the same factory as Lassa - the Lassa factory, I believe, is owned by Bridgestone!


Thinking about get mobile fitter etyres.co.uk to supply.

I haven't had them, but I checked on "Which" and it says:

+ Generally good wet and dry grip
+ Good wet and dry handling
- Availability patchy
- High purchase prices

For my cars, Michelin Energy usually comes out best, and occasionally Bridgestone. Neither is a budget brand. I get fantastic mileage of the Michelins.

A mate likes them on the back of his Saab turbo.....
Out of the big retailers, ATS Euromaster seem to be the most reasonable price and choice wise.

I’ve never had Hankook, so no experience no comments!

But happily having Lassa Impetus Revo on my car, I should correct you.
Lassa are being produced in Turkey, not Hungary, by a company called BRISA, which is a joint venture of Bridgestone as you mentioned.

Cheers

got them on the front of our mni and they seem pretty good, wet and dry grip is good and not too noisy. Would def go for them again.

I have used them in the past with no problems but haven't seen them again for years.

I've got them on a 4x4.

They were cheaper than any others at National Tyres, and have lasted longer than the 2 sets of Goodyear Wranglers fitted before them
