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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

Delivered on October 20 with 2,500 miles on them, I believe that a recall is normal at this point. Car - Kia Rio X-line. So, in order: 1. Asphalt - fairly worthy, there is a slight lack of lateral grip, rutting on the track is not felt, as some write (size 205/55 R16), they hold the road well at speed, and they do not scour. 2. Concrete - quite worthy, there is a slight lack of lateral grip. 3. Talking while traveling at 120 kilometers per hour results in a noise level that is between 75 and 78 decibels. 2. Ice is excellent; here, the spikes work out perfectly, and both braking and drifting may be accurately predicted. 3. Snow: Very good, acceleration with almost little slippage, confident braking, and turn holding until the very end. On the circuit, the course does not change even when the car is driving over a snowy parapet, nor does the automobile experience any wear. 4. The amount of noise produced by the tires is variable and is dependent on the surface they are driving on. Similar to other types of tires, winter tires include spikes and treads that produce noise when driving on smooth pavement. On a more difficult one, it's quite good and feels nearly like summer. 5. Comfort is a positive aspect. I believe that if you maintain two atmospheres, it will work perfectly great; however, roll will begin to occur in the corners. Even at these pressures—2.4 in the front and 2.2 in the back—it is significantly more forgiving than the summer. I appreciate your careful consideration.

Pros
  • Price, comfort, confidence on a snowy road, and a low overall noise level are all important considerations.
Cons
  • I'm not particularly comfortable taking turns on asphalt, especially when it's wet.
