These tyres perform very well in all conditions even on minus zero and wet roads, This is the second set of Hankook tyres and perform well on my Bmw 520 touring and give good value for money.

These were fitted to the front wheels on my front wheel drive A6. I needed tyres which would give me good grip for towing a 1400kg caravan both when accelerating and braking. These tyres do exactly that in the dry and in the wet. What more could I want. They have not once lost grip.

Got these tires for my 530d x drive and they are smooth as butter. Very quiet and unbelievable handling. No vibration whatsoever. They are better than the run flats I previously had. Will definitely be purchasing again
