Most customers give wet traction scores of 7-10, praising confident rain performance. Some report lower scores (0-6) citing hydroplaning concerns, though hydroplaning resistance mostly scores 7-10.

Very poor steering response. I will admit these tires are pretty decent in wet conditions though. I got hit by a pretty serious rain storm on Rt. 87 the other day and my speed was limited by my wipers ability to get the rain off the windshield, so... lots of rain. But I never felt a lack of traction or even a hint of hydroplaning. With that said, these tires are terrible at speed on the highway. You'll feel every gust of wind or passing car because the sidewalls have no stability/rigidity. Full disclosure, I've been daily driving a 350z with track tires for the past 6 years, so I might be more critical as far as steering response and turning traction goes. The long and short is, I drive fairly aggressively and these tires feel like marshmellows. If you're ok with that, swell, but I'll be looking to get rid of these tires as soon as possible.

...The dry traction, turn-in and braking is excellent and very sporty, and the wet and snow traction has been very impressive, at least as good if not better than the OEM Bridgestone's...
I recently purchased a full set of Hankook Dynapro HP2 tires to replace the OEM Bridgestone Dueler's on our 2013 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum in 20" P235/55R20. The OEM tires lasted about 30,000 miles with regular rotation ever 7,500 miles. I was a little skeptical about the Dynapro HP2 but have to say, after driving them in the dry, rain and in some light New Jersey snow (about 1-3") they perform very well and are perhaps the best value on the market for a replacement SUV tire. The road noise is low, the dry traction, turn-in and braking is excellent and very sporty, and the wet and snow traction has been very impressive, at least as good if not better than the OEM Bridgestone's. They are a "green" all-season silica tire and seem to have a bit less rolling resistance and I am getting maybe 1-2 MPG better gas mileage since replacing the rubber. Tire Rack shipped them to my local NTB the install was simple and painless. They are stable and have no shakes at highway speeds (tested by me up to 85 MPH). And the look good on the car to boot! I was originally planning to go with the Pirelli Scorpion Verde or upgrade to the Michelin Latitude Tour HP's for a few hundred bucks more a set, but given that this SUV is a lease and will be going back in about a year cost and value were big factors. If you are searching for a very good set of replacement SUV tires, look no further than the Hankook Dynapro HP2.

...Wet traction is also a non-issue...
These tires are OEM on my 2016 Sedona LX. Even the 65-series HP2 provide excellent directional control, and they're very quiet.
On a cool morning they feel like light truck tries...they're not not completely smooth and sometimes feel out-of-round for the first 2-3 miles. I can't explain the reason for this experience, but I can say that once they are "warmed up" they handle all pavement types nicely. Wet traction is also a non-issue.
I bought the Sedona in in March while there was still 3 weeks of winter weather to navigate in New York state. Ice/snow traction is not exceptional, but on a vehicle with as much weight as a minivan they are passable. (I'll be buying snow tires for this upcoming winter.)

...I will say they surprised the crap out of me on black Friday we got 27 inches of snow and they went thru it very well...
These tires seem to be wearing out quickly and hankook doesn't stand behind them cause they came on the car brand new. I will say they surprised the crap out of me on black Friday we got 27 inches of snow and they went thru it very well. They are ok in the rain but not great. Must be a soft compound only have 6000 miles on car and already down 2/32. Hankook admitted they are not a great tire and won't help any cause they are a cheaper grade tire for new cars to keep price down. So buyer beware of that.

I have been very satisfied. I just do not even give a thought to if the tires are going to hold up because I do not have any problems with them. They got me through a terrific snow storm that lasted for 40 miles in Idaho. I could barely see the road! It was good to not have to worry about the tires. I just kept my thoughts on following the truck lights ahead of me.

...on the dry road they were great in all respects...
I bought these tires after doing a couple of weeks research, I wanted a tire that was Quiet,handled well and rode smooth. now that I have a few miles on them I am so very pleased and very glad I purchased them! after they were installed I put on about 200 miles on them before We took a 800 mile round trip from Long beach Ca. to Mesa AZ. it was sunny and clear for the beginning of the trip then,mom nature opened up with a thunder storm,on the dry road they were great in all respects then the in rain these tires stuck like glue to the heavy rain soaked roads! I slowed down from 75 MPH to about 65 and never did they hydroplane or slip.as for the MPG it stayed the same in the first part of the trip,on the return trip it improved over what the old tires gave me.from 25MPG up to 27.5MPG
I want to say I am a Car guy and know performance and tires very well. these Hankook tires provide everything as advertised,
I would say to anyone who thinks you cannot get the best tires unless you buy brand X and pay the very high price for tires. think again cause I have been there and was disappointed,also I spent alot of money testing tires on my SUV and family full size sedan.
FYI I do not work for, or am paid to say this about these Hankook Tires.

These tires replaced the original equipment Michelin Latitudes we immediately noticed a major increase in cornering stability. Road noise almost nonexistent. We recently drove through heavy wet snow and are very happy with these. Much improved over the Michelins. The Michelins were removed at 42000 miles because of major hydroplaning problems. I'm estimating that there were 10000 miles treadwear left before hitting the treadwear bars but they were getting to the unsafe condition. We are extremely happy with the Hankooks. If they wear as good as the Michelins we are way ahead in dollars per mile and stability on the road.

...They are quiet and comfortable tires with a good feel back at the steering wheel.
I have these on my Ford Edge, they were the OE tire, but I purchased them again after the original set wore out. I`m very diligent about correct pressure , rotations and alignments. At 22k, I`m guessing I will get about 40k out of this set. They are quiet and comfortable tires with a good feel back at the steering wheel.

Started using this tire on a 2012 Honda Pilot EX-L in Sept'17. The 5,000 miles that I have driven on them have been the most comfortable, smooth, and quiet ride that I have ever experienced in my 30 plus years of driving experience. I used the OE Michelin Primacy tires for the first 3 years, then, bought a 2nd set of Primacys for the first replacement and was never even 75% satisfied with the performance. Switched to the Hankook Dynapro HP2s and will not use anything else. The first 5,000 miles have been through the Pittsburgh fall and winter seasons. I am very much looking forward to switching to these tires on my 2017 Honda CRV Touring.

This is no joke. I put these tires on my car at 68,000 miles and my odometer now reads 149,870. They are definitely getting replaced in a couple of weeks. These are mostly highway miles (80%) and they have never let me down. Granted, I read the wet surface reviews and as a result have taken it a little easier in those cases, but overall, in various conditions that I drive in, I would highly recommend these tires. I drive about 30,000 miles a year. Don't know if I just got extremely lucky with these, but I will tell you that my business partner has the same vehicle, same year, and replaced his tires with these exact same tires and he has had the same experience I have had- no problems! Honest to goodness truth! Plus the price was excellent, not the lowest, but good, and the noise level has been quite good, although I might credit Mazda for that as well.
