Review on Hankook Tire Ventus Prime3 K125 215/65 R16 98H summer by Micha Poklkowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality is top notch, happy with everything.

About 2,000 miles have been put on the tire, and while it's still too soon to draw definitive conclusions, a general impression has begun to take shape. Auto Mazda 6 gj equipped with a suspension that is relatively firm (size 225/55 R17). The body and the steering are protected from the harsh effects of surface irregularities by these tires. Good ride, less noisy, subjectively on the same level in terms of aquaplaning, the sidewall is softer, there were no extreme braking, it behaves predictably in adequate speeds of about 100 kilometers per hour, good grip on wet asphalt (again, within reasonable limits), and he feels quite confident in the rut. Compare these characteristics to the Bridgestone Turanza T001. In general, the impressions of the rubber are favorable, well-balanced, and place a clear emphasis on comfort; however, this is the flip side of the coin: at speeds above 130 kilometers per hour, there is a slight delay at the time of sudden changes and a slight inertia when setting to a new trajectory (once again, in comparison to the bridge, they feel more, but also significantly less comfortable), and it will take some time to get used to. I urge everyone to go ahead and purchase.

Pros
  • quiet, soft
Cons
  • a little amount of lag when traveling at fast speeds
