What a surprise. Fitted to a new Kuga I was a bit wary. Most of my previous Fords have been on Continentals. The Hankook site states its a tire designed for SUV's.
Good overall performance in wet and dry, corners well with no understeer, back end sits firmly to the tarmac. I honestly thought they would be caught out should winter really bring cold weather, but no.
This week saw our first snow and these tires coped well, no wheel spin and started from inclines well.
On ice be careful, thats ice for you though, any tire hates ice. The snow is on untreated rural roads as well.
They however cannot cope with mud, just a little bit has them slick. the tread pattern is not quite all seasons! Will now run them on as I was going to replace with Scorpions. Overall I am very pleased.

Huge surprise! Incredible tire, excelent braking and cornering in dry, good in wet, very confortable and lasted 120.000 km under a mix of conditions including a lot of trailering. Bought another set and probably would do it again, and again.
AT FIRST I WASN'T TO IMPRESSED UNTILL I GOT A WHEEL ALIGNMENT ,THEN OBOY I COULD NOT FAULT THEM.THERE QUIET AND THE COMFORTABLE AND GOT 42000K AND STILL HAVE 40% LEFT.SO OVERALL VERY PLEASED
Great wear, got over 100,000kms out of these tires on my Suzuki XL7 Grand Vitara. Overall a good tire, much better wear than the Bridgestone Duellers that can with the vehicle. Purchased a set. Fine in snow and good on the highway.
Whisper quiet at 60% cost of Premium Brands, best price was the main dealer, I have only done a couple of hundred miles so too early to coment further but very pleased with noise level and comfort.
This is a budget tire, but don't be put off by that; it is comfortable and good in the dry, and if you are a gentle driver ok in the wet. My new Santa Fe came with these fitted and everything was fine until the engine was run-in and then I started travelling more quickly. In damp or wet conditions I experienced sudden and severe, and potentially terminal, understeer under power at the natural apex of tight turns (roundabouts). Being an experienced driver I'd don't recall such an extreme and without warning lack in grip. After the third extreme case of this and feeling nervous, I changed all tires at about 7000 miles. This SUV is not meant to be thrown around too much, but in the hands of more spirited drivers these tires can catch you out unexpectedly. I bit the bullet and switched to another Korean tire Kumho KL12s. These ride a little harder, have less grip and drift more in the dry (marginally), but gone is the sudden without warning understeer. After 20,000 miles, this problem has vanished, push too hard and things let go gently and controllably. So if you are a push-on driver in the wet and want tires that signal when they are about to give-up, then buy any premium tire over the Hankooks, alternatively, for a little more than the Hankooks buy the Kumhos. Also, the Kumhos have a better looking open tread, are noisier on all surfaces, look narrower (actual tread width in contact with the road is about 10mm less), are better in wet/snow, but provide some tread block vibration/resonance through the steering. I don't think they have got the groove spacing variations quite right.
