Product description & features

  • Superior dry handling performance
  • Reduced rolling resistance
  • Stable and comfortable at high speeds

The Hankook Ventus Price 3 K125 is a premium car tyre, the latest member of the renowned Ventus range.

Constructing the tyre with dual stiffness along the outer ribs of the tyre and introducing a solid outside block the Ventus Prime 3 remains stable at high speeds and in corners.

Ventus Prime 3 tyres are available in 15 inch, 16 inch, 17 inch, 18 inch, and 19 inch rim tyre sizes.

Visual Alignment Indicator (VAI)

Hankook have constructed the Ventus Prime 3 with the VAI system to allow motorists a quick way to check the wheel alignment of their tyres.

Wet Performance

Four circumferential grooves have been used in the tyre’s tread pattern – these work to quickly remove surface water from the tyre’s path – reducing the risk of the car aquaplaning.

The Ventus Prime 3 is developed with an asymmetric tyre tread pattern for a 10% increase in the amount of contact between the tyre and the road.

They are really noisy. So much so that I called the Ford mobile recovery service to check out my van in advance of a planned long trip to France. The technician reassured me the buzzing noise I was getting in the cab was just tyre noise. I chose these as they were good value and apparently recommended for the Transit connect.
