Product description & features

The Ventus S1 Evo 3 K127 is a premium high-performance tyre designed by Hankook to produce excellent handling in summer weathers.

It has been designed with interlocking grooves – to enhance traction, improve wet grip performance when cornering and reduce the chances of aquaplaning.

The Ventus S1 Evo 3 K127 has been designed with the ‘Highly Enriched Synthetic Silicia Compound’ to increase the strength of the tyre.

This is a new compound that has been created by Hankook and has been produced using ‘highly purified and quality silica’ which has been vulcanised in colder temperatures for twice as much time compared to regular tyres.

Featuring an interlocking tread, the Ventus S1 Evo 3, the tyre has a reduced risk of aquaplaning and enhanced wet grip. This also helps to boost the tyre's grip when cornering in wet conditions.

Durable & Longevity

They give excellent grip in wet and a very smooth ride on dry. They required rebalancing after 6000 miles and wear is remarkably slow. I expect to get 18000 miles and they are the principal driving tyres. I will definitely repeat these on all four wheels when needed.

Quite well really, economy seems better too. Only drawback is no rim protection which detracts from the looks too..!

These tyres seem to perform better in the wet than my previous Bridgestones and generally handle really well with car feeling planted when manoeuvring. Stopping distance seems to have improved, so let's hope they last the mileage test.

The tyres seem good in the wet or dry, hot or cold. As good as the tyres from a different brand that they replaced. They grip well when cornering or accelerating.

The tyres are good and performing well. I'm very happy with their performance. What disappointed me was that they only come with 6mm tread depth from new, not 8mm that most others do. You don't normally measure the tread depth on a new tyre and none of the tyre tests mentioned 6mm, but I had the tracking done the day after fitting at a different place to where the tyres were fitted and that place gave me a vehicle health check. I was surprised so see the tyres marked as amber with 6mm. Some reviews I had read said they wear quickly, I don't think they wear quickly, they have 2mm less to start, that's a couple of thousand miles. They were about £20 cheaper than the Continental I was replacing, but had I known they only come with 6mm I would have gone with Continental again as they perform almost as well in the tests but they will last more miles. So I think the Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 3 are a great tyre but not good value for money.
