Non existent wet grip, especially at roundabouts! Have to enter round abouts at speeds of 20 kmph or less, else sure to skid and lose control. Has happened a few times to me. I'm now extremely careful when it rains and prefer taking the other car out if it's been raining.

Not sure why others are giving these tyres a great wet score.

THESE ARE THE WORST PERFORMING TYRES IN THE WET I’VE EVER HAD!

THEY ARE DANGEROUS.

The tyres will likely last well as they are hard squealers in the dry with no wet grip at all. Even with ABS these struggle to stop the car in the wet.

I will never buy Hankook again!
