Keep skidding when slightly accelerate even on dry road when install at rear, after swapping with front michelin primacy 3st DOT18 has better grip than new tire, anyone knows what happen?

Replaced my Michelin PS4 with this tire after asking around for a PS4 alternative. It's almost half the price of PS4. I was skeptical at first if it is any good but decided to give it a try.

Dry grip - Less grippy when cold. Need to warm up the tire first for it to grip. More grippy than PS4 in dry.
Wet grip - It's okay but don't expect PS4 level. Hard braking in wet would upset the car slightly. Never had that in PS4 even down to 30% tread.
Road feedback & handling - Not its strongest point. Feedback is numb, handling is more often delayed. TBH it feels more like a slightly higher performance touring tire than a UHP tire.
Wear - Clocked approx 16k km with it so far and the tread still left 70%. Been driving it hard for couple of months. Drove over quite a number of potholes and it never bulge. Very durable.
Comfort - A comfort tire, feel plushie and soft. Quiet at first but gets loud when it starts to wear. Absorbs uneven roads.

Fitted a set of these to my Mazda3 Sport Nav. I’ve always been a fan of Hankook tires but have had various on different cars, Michelin to Budget.

First thing you notice with these tires is just how much they improve the ride. The car had stock Dunlop Sport Maxx TT tires and whilst these gave a sharper steering feel you felt every little ripple in the road. The Hankooks certainly smoothed things out, with only a small trade off in steering feel. Next is the grip. In both wet and dry I’ve been known to do some pretty stupid things, but I’ve yet to trigger the ABS or lose grip with these tires. They grip and go. Aqua planing isn’t any more of an issue than any other wider tire.

Downside to this tire is wear - front tires down to 2mm after just 19k but expected with a 2.2d fwd car. Even then no noticeable loss in grip. Regarding noise it seemed quieter when I first put the tires on, however these Mazda3’s aren’t the quietest and there is a lot of road noise coming through. Unsure if this is the tire itself or the actual car, but on a previous vehicle (Seat Ibiza) I noticed a similar intermittent droning noise when switching from the Ventus V12 Evo to the Ventus V12 Evo2. Will be trying the Michelin PS4 now that it’s available in this size, as had on an A3 S Line Saloon, found I got around 30k on the front tires and they’re only £10 per tire more.

These came on my Mk8 GTI 380 with many mods, which I've put 6500 miles on and I've had all of the following Max/Ultra High Performance Summer Tires on hot hatches or sports coupes. I live in western NC and value handling, dry grip and feedback above wear and comfort. 18-20K is all that I've ever gotten out of a set of skins. That said, I was really disappointed that it didn't come with Contentals and really wanted to hate the Hankooks - but they are a pretty decent tire. I've had Bridgestones and Continentals (Loved), Michelins (Disappointing) most recently, and the Hankooks are just below the Michelins in dry handling and feedback. Breakaway is gradual, with the Hankooks giving you enough feedback to warn you that you're about to trash your new shiny toy. Would I replace them with the new Evo? It's an intriguing question - I've got a little time to do a Lot of research.

These Hankook tires came with my Model Y. On 3 separate occasions the outer part of the tire has delaminated from the inner part causing a bubble in the tire. This leads to severe vibration so it is pretty obvious. Only solution is to replace the tire, which I've now done 3 times. In Scotland we have a lot of rough roads and pot holes so maybe that's why but I have never had this with any other vehicle or tire. Also, comfort I find to be awful. Compared to the Pirelli winter tires that I fit seasonally the Hankook is very harsh and uncomfortable over rough road surfaces. I'd steer clear unless you live in mainland Europe where there are no potholes.

Alfa Romeo Giulietta Qvline 2.0 diesel. Real good tires, before this I'll drive on Pirelli Powergy.

Still unsure if they are runflats or not one tire has a bubble despite only having travelled 14000 and dealer telling us 2 fronts need replacement

Had these tire's fitted as stock from Tesla and they have been really good reliable tires. I don't have anything to compare them to on the Model 3, dry grip has been excellent but I have experienced times on wet roads where the cars stabilization control has taken over. Not sure if this is just an over aggressive stabilization control on the car though. The most impressive thing on this tire is the tread wear, it's just reached 70,000KM and there is still some treadwear left on them, I reckon they can go for another 5,000KM but given their age (5 years), I will get them replaced. Thank you Hankook for a safe 70,000KM's.

So far, I love this tire. I think it has fairly decent dry grip, especially near end of life as the tread has worn down and it gets closer to slick. I haven't tracked the tire, so no extreme heat, but it breaks traction fairly slowly and is predictable near the limit. The tire has also worn well, 20k out of a tire like this given my driving style is fairly impressive. It grips up progressively after a slide, so no snappiness. I do wish it had more feel in the steering though, however I can't tell if thats the racks fault or the tires fault given that this is my first set of tires on the car. I would get again, but keep in mind the prices are fairly close to a Pilot Super Sport (Star BMW) or a Pilot Super Sport 4S, and that tire is probably a better performer in every regard and lasts approximately as long as the Hankook.

Super tires in wet and dry . i have them on 20 inch rims and they are still comfy to ride . The only complain i have is that they start having dry cracks before they are worn out . The car inspection said they have to be replaced at the next inspection next year . So its a bit sad i have to put new tires on before they met the minimum marker . But its not that bad . they would maybe last 1 more extra year . But i wont buy them again because if this problem . they lasted 4.5 years and about 28.000 miles .

I bought a Maserati Granturismo 4.7 second hand and I found these tires on my car, maybe they are not design to handle many HP, I don't feel much control if I push on the gas either with the electronic control the traction is not so good, I have to push very gentle, because of this lack of confidence I can't say too much, I will replace asap with something with more grip. I never try on the wet because if on the dry is not so good I can't imagine what has to be on the wet.

Used on Skoda Kodiaq. I do 900k's a week and clocked up 65k's on these and rotated twice. awesome wear. Used over 2 winters and no slips whats so ever on the twisty roads I drive. Highly recommended. Swapped over from the Continentals on car and would have replaced with them but they were twice the price. can't compare the two as swapped out nearly wore continentals at around 40k's.

Bought a set of these to replace the old Michelin PS4's. Knew they would be good, but they have surprised me with just how good they have been overall. Dry grip is great, wet grip is very good too. I drive a lot of miles on mixed roads, and the tires are the perfect all rounder being excellent on the twisty stuff but also unbelievably comfortable on the motorway, much more so than the Michelin's were. They are wearing quite well too, with my garage estimating them to last around 25k miles by time they need changed again. Overall very happy.

Grip in both dry and wet is simply amazing. Steering response and precision are not great, and that is putting it mildly, both of those are due to a very soft side wall, but you will have a hard time finding a tire that grips more than the evo3 (when the steerig lock is big enough to make it grip). Inspite of the lackluster responsivenes and feedback, it is really easy to drive at the limit as the tire is very forgiving to driver errors.

While the wet grip is very good, the tire does tend to aquaplane a lot sooner than similar tires from other manufacturers. This is probably the quietest tire I have ever driven. Somehow this tire eats up smaller bumps as if you are riding on air, but is terrible at handling bigger bumps. So far I also observed a surprising resistance to punctures displayed by this tire, but this seems to be one of the most often overlooked achievements of most premium manufacturers in the last 10 years.

Changed my P Zeros to a cheaper brand and brought Hankook for my BMW X3 and i was very surprised , the drive was smooth and road handing very good but i don't drive fast in the wet, and they are very quite as well when on the motorway . The last lost of tires were nearly £1k and these were £766 and to be fair what a great buy, not had them long enough to judge the road wear but the Pirellis in my opinion wore very quickly especially at the front .
