Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 Tire Review & Rating
Combining high performance traction and handling with quality ride comfort is what the Ventus V12 Evo K110 from Hankook Tires is designed to do best. Engineered for drivers of sport coupes and sedans, this high performance summer tire offers the latest in tire technology at a good value.
Hankook Combines their unique High Tg Polymer & Specific Resin into a silica enhanced tread compound to give the Evo K110 better performance handling on both dry or wet road surfaces. The directional tread pattern sports independent tread blocks and notched shoulder ribs to increase cornering power and braking abilities.
A continuous center rib enhances steering response and stability. Wet grip performance is improved through the tire’s circumferential grooves and Hankook’s Y shaped lateral grooves. They combine to evacuate more water away from the tire, as well as reduce the risk of hydroplaning for added safety on wet pavement.
Inside the tire you will find two steel belts with spirally wrapped jointless nylon that add more strength and stability to the tire at higher speeds, and a better overall ride quality. Hankook has also added hard rubber in the sidewall to give the V12 better distortion resistance during hard cornering or when driving at much higher speeds.
- Dry and wet traction are very good
- Above average cornering grip
- Ride comfort is among best in its class
- Excellent value for the price
Cons
- Tires may get a bit noisier as they wear down
Overall Thoughts
As maximum performance tires, these Hankook K110 tires are fun to drive on. They provide more than adequate traction on dry or wet surfaces, as well as in the corners. Ride quality is surprisingly good on this tire. In fact it is among the leaders in its class for comfort.
The only downside, if you really want to call it that because this is the case with most all summer tires, is that it tends to get a bit noisier as it wears down. For the price, this tire is an excellent value.
