Hankook Ventus Prime 3 K125 Reviews - Page 8

Given 93% while driving a Opel Astra H 1.4 (205/55 R16 V) on a combination of roads for 1,200 easy going miles
I've bought this tires month and a half ago and passed 2000 km.
So far I can say that I'm satisfied. I'm driving calm, although sometimes I like to go as fast as I think is safe on a curvy roads. With the last tires-Continental premium contact I was sometimes finding the limit when I notice they don't like the speed. I haven't found the limit of the Hankooks so far and I think I don't drive so fast to find it.
I had one last moment brake when I didn't see it was red light. Driving around 50 km/h on a very rainy day (maybe that's way I wasn't in a mood) hit the brake all the way and I was pleasantly surprised that the car stop before the traffic light. The ABS hit as I was on the zebra paint, but I saw why Hankook tires often this year wins braking tests.

The wear I cannot comment now, and they are louder than the continentals before.

Previosly had Michelin pilot primacy hp, they were very good, lasted over 60000km, still plenty of mm remained, just rubber began to purrich. I wish Michelin would keep doing same stone reliable tires.
Concerning Hankook Ventus Prime 3, fist impration they are amazing. More comfortable and feels more light going. They do not feel as firm fitted as Michelin, but stearing is precise and became lighter. They are very sond tires whether in a city or on a high way. I would wish a little better here and there, but they 1/3 cheaper than Michelin and are not less good. Hope also they last not less than Michelin.
So far very recommendable tire in every aspect! You won't be disappointed.

Extra thanks to this source as helped me much during my tire surch!

Great tyre, a little loud (same as conti premium contact), good grip on dry and wet, you feal what the car is doing. It seams that the tyre is doing that, what Hankook promises for the Ventus Prime 3.

First impressions. Better feedback than former Ventus Prime2. Tests show very good performance on wet tarmac. This tyre is really close to premium and even beats some top brands in certain tests. You can find almost all the sizes and the price is much lower than top rivals.

Given 63% while driving a Subaru Outback 3.0L (215/55 R17 W) on mostly country roads for 700 average miles
Just first impression (1100 km on Ukrainian roads):
- noise upto 70 km/h is acceptable
- noise after 120 km/h is slightly disturbing
- acceleration became worse even after winter Yokohama tires (strange)
- comfort not very impressive (maybe because I inflated them by 0.3 bars more - 2.4 instead of needed 2.1 due to bad roads)
- grip on dry is rather good
- tires made in Hungary 05th week of 2016
