Hankook Kinergy 4S 2 X
265/40 R21 Y (105)

Driven 500 miles on the new tyre, feels the same as the more expensive tyres I have on my other wheels. So good value for money.

More than satisfactory

Excellent better grip much smoother and quieter. - Much prefer this brand which came with the car originally, have tried different brands but decided to stick with these for better all round performance.

Excellent, great in snow and ice conditions, I live in the Highlands and we have had a lot of snow and icy conditions, so great all season tyres are a must.

Cold weather performance is fantastic, offering assurance and stability in wet weather, snow, and sub-zero conditions.

Driving through heavy downpour (if not torrential rain) there was not a single moment of grip loss or the car not going in the direction I stared it in. Giving me so much confidence and security

Tyres perform well In all conditions and are quiet. - Tyres are very quiet with good grip. No tyre wear yet and good in all weather conditions.

Too Noisy, it sound like I’m driving on off road tyres, grip seems ok but I don’t drive it too hard, wear is ok - They don’t seem to grip as well as I thought they would in wet conditions and the road noise is bad - The tyres have not been fully tested in all conditions yet but they are very noisy compared to summer tyres that were on prior to them although they were 8 years old so we’re pretty close to the limit.

Brilliant tyres , great value for money - Excellent , brilliant in all weather's

Good grip. Low noise. Comfortable ride. I have a pair of these tyres on the rear wheels and they seem to keep the back end of the car safely on the road. - I bought a pair of Hankook Kinergy tyres shortly before setting off on a 1,500 mile road trip through Spain and France that included several days in the Pyrenees. I had already fitted Goodyear Vector tyres on the front, and needed something for the rears. I have had good experience with Hankook in the past so decided to try their all-season tyres (especially as the price was competitive too). On the road trip the conditions ranged from +20C sunshine through torrential rain to -5C with heavy snow. Due to the Kodiaq’s Haldex system, most of the work is done by the front wheels unless the rears are needed. When we had snow and ice the Hankooks performed excellently. When we were just tootling along they were quiet and gave the heavily loaded rear end a very secure feeling. Now that we are back in the UK they are, in the most positive sense, unnoticeable. We’ll see what happens when the weather gets really bad in the Summer (I.e. terrible heat). My view at the moment is that these are great tyres to fit to the rear of a front wheel drive or variable drive car, and will be my automatic choice in the future.

Tyres feel good in all weather conditions. They suit the suspension which feels more comfortable and they feel secure when cornering or braking in poor weather.

I bought them in the hope that they will perform well in slippery weather

Very pleased with this brand of tyre , very good in the wet .

Good performance in all weathers

As a dual season tyre they have performed excellently all year round, particularly in the recent excessively wet period where the slightly open tread copes wonderfully withstanding water. - So far excellent in heavy rain and dry conditions

Been very good in frosty conditions and superb in flood waters of 12-18 inches but not tested in any amount of snow and not used in summer conditions - Very good all round tyres were excellent on untreated country roads in icy conditions and very good on flooded roads - Performing very well in cold and icy conditions but not driven on snow yet

Good in all conditions sun, rain & shine they have been very good. No problem at all & no concerns and I would definitely recommend them. - Feel just as good as the o E spec Yokohamas that they replaced, so far so good but need to wait until winter to be sure.

Wanted a higher performance All Season tyre to replace the Winter tyres I had used before. On the whole dry grip/wet grip and braking are very good. The problem I find is that when the temp gets to 5 and below the compound is too stiff. Once heat is in the tyres they perform well, it just feels as if you've lost the power steering on the car until then, worse than when I run my Summer Pirelli P Zeros when cold. Think I'll be going back to softer Winter tyres when these are used.

Very well, steering is responsive.

These tyres perform well in wet cold weather. In dry summer conditions they are no better than most other tyres I have used. I am unable to say how well they work in snow and ice as the west country has very few days with snow laying.
