Review on Hankook Tire Winter i*Cept iZ 2 W616 235/55 R17 103T by Ognian Mateev ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

When it comes to selecting winter tires, I always take a responsible approach; I constantly read reviews, and I always look at ratings and tests conducted by reputable sources. For myself, I made the decision a long time ago that studs are not necessary in the city, and as a result, I only purchase "northern" tires that do not have studs. The Hankook Tire Winter i*Cept finished in third place in the "Driving" rating of the season "winter 19/20," behind the leaders from Nokia and Continental. Although it lagged slightly behind the leaders in most indications, the option was made to go with Hankuk because the leaders are already 2-2.5 times more expensive in the same size. There were no unusual difficulties encountered when switching from shoes to cast ones; they were able to maintain a good balance with a minimum amount of luggage. I spent three months in St. Petersburg driving in all possible conditions, including dry and wet asphalt at plus and minus (up to -25) temperatures, in snow porridge, on ice, in snow ruts, on snow rolled to the mirror, on snow 10- 15 cm deep, and I never got stuck, did not lose control, did not get into drifts and demolitions, and "on the floor" did not slow down. Driving style that exudes self-assurance and composure. Rubber is an investment that pays off and fulfills its purpose completely. It, like all Velcro, is not particularly like of ice and snow ruts, but as this was to be expected, it did not result in a great deal of discontent on the customer's part. Those individuals who do not follow leading brands and seek maximum quality for the least amount of money spent might consider purchasing it. I won't say anything about wear resistance just yet because this is the first winter on the tires of this brand; based on the outcomes of the first winter, I will decide whether or not to continue using them, provided that I don't forget.

Pros
  • Considerations of cost, product excellence, and performance "Behind the Wheel"
Cons
  • Until I discovered
