The Kinergy ST is Hankook's Standard Touring All-Season tire developed for the drivers of family sedans, crossovers, coupes and minivans who want a balanced blend of performance combined with long tread life. The Kinergy ST was designed to deliver a smooth and quiet ride along with confident traction in dry, wet and wintry conditions, even light snow.
Utilizing an abrasion-resistant all-season compound provides durability, and the symmetric pattern of the Kinergy ST allows for easy rotation patterns to resist irregular wear and prolong tire life. A coupled center rib and tie bars in the outboard grooves help stabilize the tread for enhanced rigidity and responsive handling. The optimized pitch sequence is designed to reduce tread noise, and the independent tread blocks and sipes create multiple biting edges for traction in slippery conditions. Open shoulder slots and deep, circumferential grooves help evacuate water from the contact patch for hydroplaning resistance, and wide, lateral notches combine with the optimized sipes to provide wet braking performance and light snow traction.
Internal construction of the Kinergy ST consists of a two-ply, polyester casing to aid ride comfort and durability, with two wide, steel belts stabilizing the tread. A full-width, nylon cap ply provides high-speed capability. High-stiffness bead filler delivers sharp steering response, and the strong, jointless bead wire enhances uniformity for a smooth ride.
El neumático Kinergy ST de Hankook pertenece a la categoría: Turismo Estándar Para Toda Estación y fue desarrollado para conductores de sedanes familiares, utiliautos (crossovers), cupé y minivans, que desean una combinación balanceada de rendimiento con un desgaste lento. El diseño del Kinergy ST ofrece un andar parejo y silencioso, al mismo tiempo que una tracción confiable sobre superficies secas, mojadas y en condiciones invernales, inclusive con poca nieve.
El Kinergy ST utiliza un compuesto de caucho para toda temporada resistente a la abrasión, lo cual, proporciona durabilidad. Su patrón simétrico permite una rotación sencilla que ayuda a resistir el desgaste irregular y prolongar el ciclo de vida del neumático. Un segmento central con elementos conectados y barras de unión en las ranuras ubicadas en la parte externa, ayudan a estabilizar la huella para aumentar la rigidez y la respuesta. La secuencia optimizada del tono ha sido diseñada para reducir el ruido, mientras que, bloques independientes y pequeñas ranuras en sus superficies, crean múltiples bordes adherentes para obtener mayor tracción sobre superficies resbalosas. Ranuras en los hombros y canales circunferenciales profundos ayudan a evacuar el agua del área de contacto y resistir el deslizamiento sobre agua (hydroplaning), ranuras anchas laterales combinadas con pequeñas ranuras optimizadas sobre la superficie, proporcionan un mejor frenado sobre mojado y tracción sobre poca nieve.
La construcción interna del Kinergy ST cuenta con una estructura de dos capas de poliéster que ayudan con el confort y la durabilidad, además, dos correas anchas de acero estabilizan la huella. Una capa ancha de nailon proporciona capacidad para rodar a velocidades elevadas, mientras que, refuerzos en el área del talón o alambre de aro aumentan la rigidez para mejorar la respuesta al girar el volante. Los alambres del aro fuertes y sin juntas mejoran la uniformidad parar ofrecer un andar más parejo.

Customers praise wet traction with most scores 7-10, many highlighting 9s and 10s. Some note concerns (0-6) in heavy rain, but overall positive feedback for all-season wet performance.
...And wet traction and hydroplaning resistance was excellent all the way to the end!
Some of the best all-around tires I have had. Surprisingly quiet and smooth ride for a 70K mileage rating. Traction and cornering a bit greasy especially when cold but more than acceptable for 70K tires. Pleasantly communicative closer to the limit with gentle and predictable break-away. After 50K miles road noise got a little louder but not excessively. And wet traction and hydroplaning resistance was excellent all the way to the end!

...wet and try traction is so much better than the previous sets of Tiger Paws...
I don’t put a lot of miles on this older truck so I can’t comment on tread wear. However, wet and try traction is so much better than the previous sets of Tiger Paws. Quiet comfortable ride. I wish I had bought these a long time ago

...Feel very confident on the road in dry and wet conditions... I don't really make it a point to drive through heavy snow, so I cannot comment on that but as far as wet traction and in light snow and on dry roads these are great...
These tires have been nothing less than great for our minivan. Much quieter than the the tires we replaced for these. Mostly city driving. Feel very confident on the road in dry and wet conditions. We got a few snow events after getting these installed last year and they handled light snow greatly. I don't really make it a point to drive through heavy snow, so I cannot comment on that but as far as wet traction and light snow go and dry roads these are great. I'm actually going to replace my tires on my car with the same ones when I get to the point where I need to.

Customers praise the Kinergy ST's snow traction with many 9s and 10s, though ice performance shows variability (scores 0-8). All-season design supports reliable winter capability for most drivers.
...I had my doubts that they would be OK in winter conditions, but to my surprise, they actually performed quite well. Traction is plentiful, and a steady foot allows them to grip even in decent snow. Put your foot down and the tires happily grab any snow and fling it from your way...
Bought these because they were one of the few white letter options that would fit my Corvette before the snow hit. I had my doubts that they would be OK in winter conditions, but to my surprise, they actually performed quite well. Traction is plentiful, and a steady foot allows them to grip even in decent snow. Put your foot down and the tires happily grab any snow and fling it from your way. They’ve worn fairly well so far, and if I wasn’t considering changing tire sizes, I would consider getting them again once these tires expire.

...I drove it through one southern Wi winter. They handled quite well in the snow. I have rear wheel drive that I load down with 3 bags of softener salt for traction...
Values posted are arbitrary. I've had no issues with hydroplaning. I drove it through one southern Wi winter. They handled quite well in the snow. I have rear wheel drive that I load down with 3 bags of softener salt for traction. That said, these are new tires. I would not expect to use these in Wisconsin snow for the life of the tire. With regard to cornering, I don't really have a comparison point.

Customers praise dry traction with most scoring 9s and 10s for reliable grip and responsive handling. A few 7-8 ratings still indicate solid all-season performance.
...good on a dry road, responsive...
I've driven 4,000 miles on these tires, good on a dry road, responsive, very quiet, low noise, very smooth, not great on a wet road when cornering, a little bit of hydroplane action, snow haven't tried yet so i rated a 6, the tires still look brand new after 4000 miles pretty durable, made in the USA too! Buy America baby!

I have not been in a deeper snow to know how they act with the AWD but they sure do last a long time, and have good on road/rain/dry traction, dont make noise, and have good treadwear...
I got these on a 2023 Ford maverick that had the tires replaced at 23K miles. These were the replacements. now had 37K on it.. When I bought this these were on it. I figured they were the original tires till I saw the CarFax and saw changed out at 23K. I had planned on when they wore out changing them over to a A/T type tire.. thing is... they just dont/wont wear out lol.. So far for a "regular car tire" in a all season they are pretty good/solid tire.
I do think I will end up changing to the A/T when these wear out.. however so far they have been fine. I have not been in a deeper snow to know how they act with the AWD but they sure do last a long time, and have a good on road/rain/dry traction, dont make noise, and have good treadwear. I have had them in light snow/slush and they were fine...that said we never got more than 3" of snow this year...They may not be a truck A/T tire with the little mountain/snowflake emblem for severe snow ratings(and thats what I run for trips back near Buffalo NY) but for a general all season passenger tire id get them again no problems.

High ratings dominate, suggesting strong satisfaction with wear resistance for standard touring needs.
...On the tires, good blend of traction, wear, and noise. I have a bought a few good sets of tires in my years, and these are in the team photo of one of the better ones.
bought these tires for an 01 S10 pickup, very pleased. Love the option of using Tire Rack to pick out the tires I want, and not settling for what a store has. Great service, delivery speed etc. On the tires, good blend of traction, wear, and noise.

So far at 8500 miles, tires still look near new. These tires are rated 700 for mileage and AA for traction and temperature resistance, both high ratings for such economical tires. These tires are comparable to expensive Bridgestone tires I had previously at 30% lower price, IMHO.
