Review on Hankook Tire Winter i*Pike RS2 W429 185/65 R15 92T by Stanislaw Komorowski ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Total disappointment, the product is terrible.

The tires are so defective that not only can they not be used, but even the car will not stand on them for more than a few hours, and at the same time the store refuses to fix the matter swiftly. In summary, the car is not running, time and money have been spent, the tires are so defective that not only can they not be used, but even the car will not stand on them for more than a few hours. To be honest, I have no idea which scenario is more problematic: having issues with tires or having issues with a business; nonetheless, both scenarios include one issue that is more severe than the other.

Cons
  • After mounting the Hankook Winter i * Pike RS2 W429 tires into the wheels, the process took just about an hour and a half. During this time, one of the wheels had become obviously deflated, and the other wheel had also aroused suspicion and required pumping. In order to figure out what the issue was, I had to go back to the tire shop. It was discovered that the first wheel had three (three!) separate holes, and the second wheel had two separate holes, one on each of the inner and outer edges of the tires. All of the holes are located on the shoulder. They were impolite and told to go overboard on their own, and they would bring the tires that were already missing discs to be submitted for investigation in the Wheels for Nothing store, which is where I got it and where there is a tire service. However, they refused to repair the problem. It was at nine o'clock at night during the season when the record was set at tire shops for the next few days! Despite the fact that the tires were dropped so rapidly, I had to pump up the wheels before traveling from the tire shop to the store and back again, this is the result. Those. Even if I had waited until the morning, I would have been unable to leave the car because it would have been on the disks by then. During the process of re-beading, it was discovered that there was a third tire with a connection to the same couple! Those. I have discovered that all of the tires in the batch with a manufacture date of 1819 are flawed, with the exception of the last fourth one, which has a production date of 1419. On this particular tire, a flaw of the same kind has not yet been discovered, but it is possible that it will do so at a later time or that it will be a unique flaw altogether. If it doesn't have at least three (three!) defective tires, it's not real. Because the tire fitting suggested that this was a tread welding problem, which indicates that it may progress along the entire seam, it's a good thing that it turned out to be spotted quickly and that it wasn't left somewhere on the road with three wheels that had parted. This would have been a dangerous situation.
