Hankook  Optimo H428

I have two seasons where I live, very hot and cold (35-118 degrees). Dry grip is quite good as well as steering feel and cornering. In a straight line the grip from these are also good considering the tire size. I've not experienced any hydroplaning and when it rains here it rains hard. Wet grip is only okay. These have provided some really good fuel economy as well. Over all not a bad tire but my style demands more.

I realize that this is a tire for an economy car, but they are by far the worst tires I have ever had on any car. They are worse than useless in the snow. Reminds me of driving my 97 Z/28 with Eagle GSCs when I'm in the snow. Even in the rain it's hard to pull out into traffic without the traction control going off. I will be replacing these tires before the snow flies next winter. Maybe even sooner, since they are not very good in the rain either. I don't trust them for spirited cornering in dry weather either. If you consider these tires for your car...STAY AWAY! You've been warned.

unsafe at any speed.... This tire, the Hankook came on my certified pre-owned Volvo. I'm going out on a limb here, but this tire should not be allowed on American roads. I don't know what the driving conditions are in the country where these things were manufactured, but they have the feeling going around corners like driving a sofa-bed. The sidewalls are pure sponge giving a "here we go" feeling. Wet traction is hazardous... I have no confidence in these tires in the rain. They hydroplane like crazy! I could feel the All Wheel Drive system engaging at every turn. These tires are... UNSAFE at ANY SPEED.

These tires are good on dry road period. They came with the car I had never purchased or experienced this brand of tire before. I have to agree with most of the other ratings. These are the worst tires for rain and hydro planing. at 27000 mi I still have about 4/32 left on the tread. small puddles and I am fighting to keep out of the ditch. I have had some bad tires before but these are dangerous. soon as it stops raining here. I'm replacing these tires.

Other than the performance in dry conditions, these tires are absolutely terrible. In the snow, I was almost involved in four accidents last winter. Do not waste your hard earned money on these tires. There are many more choices for the same money or less that are superior. I wouldn't put these tires on my kids wagon!

This tire is the wrost ever. it si rated at 60K and at 30K they were were gone! They are terribnle in the snow. Lest season i calle dinto work ever time it snowed (in michigan!) becasue i was to fearfull to drive the car. This season the first snow fall wasnt much.. but enough to wreck the car! so disappointed! now I need new tires and have a deduciable to pay.

This tire is absolute junk!!!! I have never owned a worse set of tires. They are average at best in dry conditions and in wet conditions forget about it. I only used the tires I had on my Sonic in the snow once or twice at the tail end of last winter. If you value your life, or anyone else's, replace these factory junk tires right away. These tires also have terrible road noise and drive hard as a rock. As far as tread ware, I wouldn't know because I replace them with a different set at 11k miles. Take them off right away and sell them on Craigslist.... I did!

This is the OE tire on the 2014 Chevy Sonic and it is by far, the WORST tire I have ever driven on. I'd rather wrap the rim in duct tape and use it as a tire before putting another set of these on. These are being removed with less than 13,000 miles on them for a far superior tire.

I've never had a tire on a new car alert me so quickly to how bad they are. I've had the car since August 2013 so this is mostly a dry pavement review. There is a patch of road on the highway I travel on that has tiny little grooves in it. I've driven 5 different vehicles over this road and none of them except these tires have wobbles over the road like they do. It's a little scary. As for ice or snow, no way. I slid around a corner doing 5mpg, and the abs kicked in when I slowed down at a stop sign going very slow. I almost slid through the intersection. I hate these tires. Can't wait to change them out.

Came stock on my 2013 Chev Sonic, Tires are ok for normal wet and dry pavement. Never had any control issues or loss of traction. Dismal performance when there is any snow or ice. Had to mount winter tires to be able to get up a slight slope when there is any snow at all, or risk skidding up the slope while trying to get any speed over 10 kph. Tread wear is great however the tires have literally weather cracked after 4 years 1 month and need to be replaced already. My last set of bfg tires lasted me over 8 years before they weathered enough to be replaced. Have only put 27,000 km's or 17,000 miles on these tires. Very disappointed about needing new tires already, shortest life of any tire myself or my family has ever owned including some off brand tires. Would not buy again or recommend.

These came on my '12 Chevy Sonic hatch. They were alright when new but wore fast. Overall a very average tire. It was OK at doing the task but wasn't even remotely good at any one of them. They got me to where I was going in one piece and that's about it.

At 25k miles they are mostly worn out. I've got about 3mm on the rears and about 5mm on the fronts after a rotation 5k miles ago. Replacing these tires with General Altimax HPs that I just received today. These started hydroplaning in the recent rain and it was time to go. Off to a much better set.

I have 15K miles and am in the process of shopping for tires already. I drive with two hands on the wheel when ever there is rain or snow on the ground. Other than a quiet ride, these tires are substandard. There are many tires with lower prices that far surpass these.
