Review on Hankook Tire Winter i*Pike RS2 W429 185/65 R15 92T by Mateusz Grzesiak  (M ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

There are some variations, but tolerable on the whole.

On our roads with pits, I do not recommend purchasing, especially since the cost of tires is close to 3 top brands (Michelin, Jaca, Conti). Pros: It brakes and rows on ice and snow very well, brakes and accelerates confidently on dry and wet pavement. It's good to keep the spikes, for 3000 km not a single spike fell out. Quiet, noise, acceleration, braking 4-5 points. Everything else is 3 or less. Has some cons: When reversing, it rides much worse in the snow, so if you plan to park in the snow, then it’s better to immediately drive in backwards so that there is no problem with leaving later. It behaves badly at speeds over 80 km per hour, it starts to scour the road, you have to catch the car all the time. If at 80 this is not very noticeable, then with an increase in speed it intensifies, the higher the speed, the more difficult it is to keep the car on the road (bumps, ruts). The main drawback, he is afraid of pits, once at 100 km per hour he slipped through a pit about 30 cm long (depth 10-15 cm), immediately got a hernia (the blow was but not strong, the pit just flew over). On Khaka and Mishka, this is not the case, according to the experience of operating them, for more than 15 years all year round not a single hernia, when driving through larger pits at speeds from 20 to 120 km per hour.
