Pros
- Beautiful tread, stable in turn, did not notice a difference in comparison with summer, but I'm not a noisemaker .
Cons
- I thought that it would be more comfortable at the joints, as if summer at t + 8, at a pressure of 2.2 atm

Description of Hankook Tire Kinergy 4S2 H750 215/60 R16 99V all season
Hankook Kinergy 4S2 is a directional tread passenger tire designed to improve driving safety in all seasons. Designed specifically for year-round operation in European countries with mild winter weather conditions. Model 2018.
In the Hankook Kinergy 4s2 lineup (Hankook Kinergy Four Es 2) will replace the Hankook Kinergy 4S H740, which has been produced since 2014. Unlike its predecessor, it received a symmetrical directional design, which, by the way, is used for the first time for all-season tires of the South Korean brand, despite the fact that this is already the fifth generation of tires for year-round use.
Optimization of the tread pattern not only improved the tire''s handling on wet and dry surfaces, but also significantly reduced its braking distance in various weather conditions.
The Kinergy 4s2 model is characterized by increased rigidity, precise steering response, and reliable grip, notes a Shina technical specialist. guide. A high level of tire rigidity is provided by a massive block structure and a special arrangement of tread blocks. Hankook engineers ensure that the tire''s braking performance is not affected by temperature conditions, and the tire''s shoulder blocks provide the necessary "grip" to improve handling.
A directional tire tread pattern is one of the main factors for safe driving on wet roads. The V-shaped design of the Hankook H750 Kinergy 4S 2, made up of alternating blocks directed towards the center, is a guarantee of excellent directional stability of the tire not only in dry conditions, but also in rain.
Wide two-level lateral drainage grooves with the help of two annular grooves quickly drain water from the contact patch, increase the tire''s resistance to hydroplaning effect and improve slush flotation.
The Hankook Kinergy 4S2''s extra grip on wet road surfaces is provided by a rubber compound that contains highly dispersed silica and ingredients from natural, renewable raw materials. It is worth noting that the combination of natural and synthetic components in the rubber mixture had a positive effect on the “dry” grip of the tire.
To optimize grip and increase the contact surface area of the Hankook Kinergy 4S 2 tire with snow, three-dimensional sipes are designed to cut horizontally through the central blocks of the tread. Wavy lamellas tending to meet each other shorten the braking distance on snow, and also, oddly enough, reduce wear at high temperatures and high loads.
The model is equipped with winter tread wear indicators, which are called Winter Tread Wear Indicators, abbreviated as WTWI. They are located in the grooves of the Kinergy 4s2 tread and allow the car owner to quickly assess the condition of the tire.

Pros
- Very soft and comfortable tire. Great in the rain. She doesn’t care about deep puddles or rain-soaked asphalt. Water is removed from the contact patch very effectively. Allows you to drive fast and safely when others are afraid to cough. Passes rails on crossings and joints on bridges very gently. Several times I got at a decent speed into the pits on the roads after the "descent" of the asphalt along with the snow. The bumps did not appear and the sidewall is intact. Road holding is good, but not as good as hard summer tyres. But here, I think it's all about pressure. You need to push them a little harder. They paddle very well in the mud. He left the muddy earthen pits filled with water. Almost did not skid. Easily climbs curbs.
Cons
- At high speed, a little rumble is heard from the herringbone tread. In high-speed turns roll. But perhaps this can be corrected by increasing the pressure. Due to the very efficient drainage, very strong splashes are obtained. Those who ride or walk next to you will not envy. We have to slow down so as not to splash pedestrians. Heard very strong sandblasting in the wheel arches. All the winter sand left on the roads rows just brutally. I'm afraid for anticorrosive and paint in the wheel arches. Let's see how she will behave in the summer in the heat. When the asphalt melts
