285/55 R18 Tyres

Came from a pair of falken tyres and was comfortable taking corners at 60 and 80 on the mountain pass I normally go to. After receiving this pair of tyres from ozzy tyres I knew budget tyres were gonna be horrible. After a break in period I was going to take it to the same pass I normally take it and after leaving my house I lost traction 3 times before even getting there. Simple corners and moderate speeds will put you sideways. I have a steep driveway and in the rain it was a struggle to get out. People with non performance cars are probably fine to use these tyres as a budget purpose, but if you have any car over 200hp I would not recommend. Even if you decide to buy it be prepared to deal with the most annoying tyre sound I have ever experienced as it is a constant high pitch whir, enough to the point it made me go out and upgrade my exhaust just to drown it out.

Perfect tyre for the Shogun. Quiet, responsive, grippy and good on mpg. Replaced some no name branded tyres and the difference was immense. T/C light didn't come on at any point in wet or dry. The noise was deafening but after I fitted these, the burble from the engine was all that could be heard. Wear rate higher than I thought but worth the soft compound for the noise reduction. Handled all road surfaces, wet grass, mud and slush brilliantly, better than I thought as they really do look more like passenger car tyres than full off roaders. Would definitely buy again, impressed with Kumho.

All four corners had Ventus ST on them when I bought the car and all tyres had approximately 4mm on them. Found them to be noisy on the motorway and A-Roads. Ok around town and superb off road. Dry grip was good but I felt they were skating a touch on very wet roads which made for poor feedback. Definitely a great 4x4 tyre but not so great when using them on tarmac.

car originally fitted with Pirelli Scorpion Zeros and I have had several replacments sets. These are a good tyre, but the Hankook Ventus ST are far superior in all aspects. I would definatly continue to use these. Supply is not easy..........
