Hankook Ventus Prime 4 Reviews - Page 2

Given 89% while driving a Honda Civic 1.5T (215/50 R17) on mostly motorways for 2,000 spirited miles
I'am using these tyres on a 2022 Civic Sedan 1.5 Turbo 182 unit, having used the OEM Bridgestone,Michelin Primacy +4 (+ version) I would like to say the following:

1) far and I mean it far more smoother then the bridgestone and in fact even smoother than the Michelin which aids to a better ride comfort.
2) noticeably lower tyre roar when compared to the bridgestone and unexpectedly even better at this when compared to the Michelin as well
3) Dry braking,handling cant find any weaknesses does it all very well
4) Wet handling is behind the Michelin's but not to a point to be worried about as is aquaplaning behaviour
5) wear, too early for me to judge but will perhaps return to this site to comment on that again.
6) some sites noted this tyre to have slightly higher road resistance when compared to the Michelins but I purposely noted many details (how long it drove at a certain speed in the same area and how long it took for it to come to a full stop as well as average fuel consumption etc) and noticed not even a bit of a difference (please note Michelins score extremely high in this field so that's a good thing :) )

overall definitely happy and will definitely buy this tyre again.

Very good tyres, low noise and very good grip especially when you are late and need to get somewhere faster

Decent tyre for the road. Average near the limit. Quite bad at the track. Buy if you want a good tyre for the road. By no means a high performance tyre.

I've bought Ventus Prime 4 after i used Hankook Kinergy 4S2 for 3 years. Ventus Prime 4 is a tyre with great handling. Behaves and grip excellent in all conditions and even at colder temperatures. Wear is ok after 6 months, not visible yet. Highly recommend these. They were pretty cheap also.

I bought a set of 4 after Goodyear efficient grip and they felt much quieter and more comfortable. Made a summer trip of 13.000 km and total of 20.000 km with these tyres and I can say that you can relay on these tyres. I crossed 7 countries during the summer some of them with terrible road surface but the tyres handled all of them perfectly. I would recommend!

The best tire ever! Very good cornering grips. Perfect for braking, wet and dry! I wouldn't change it at all!

Went for these from Michelin PS4, which were starting to be noisy and not that grippy. Wanted to buy GY F1AS6, but found nobrainer deal on these (30% cheaper than GY). Reviews seemed OK and my main focus was to improve road noise so had no issue going i to "Touring" line. As usual with new tyre better grip is there. Tyre is really quiet on highway 110kmh+. In speeds around 80kmh there is strange high-pitched distant whine when cruising/pulling, goes away when deaccelerating so something not that premium with the outer thread design, but no dealbreaker in comparison to real noise from worn PS4.. I really have to bring up wet performance as that is just outstanding tested multiple times during storm on highway, but again mostly thanks to fresh new deep thread. Steering is superlight with this tyre, have to drive all the time with steering switched to Sport mode to get same response as from PS4 in Normal mode. Overall really good deal of tyre.

İ choosed this brand for the first time. these were a little cheaper than continental premium contact or way too cheap than michelin primacy 4. i drove my B8 passat variant for 5000km(almost) with hankook's and yo be honest ; not good as i expect. I may be put my expectations too high because rolling resistance B wet braking A noise 69 db is really low. i thought that's obviusly very good tyre. good tyres. but not that great. The most obvious thing felt while driving is silence. the rest is ordinary

I put 3000km on the tyre. It gives excellent grip in the dry and wet and excellent feedback. To be honest I was not expecting such good performance. Can't comment on the ware as of now but it's definitely a tyre I can rely on. Coming from a Continental Premiumcontact 6 I would say it's an improvement which I didn't believe was possible. Excellent efficiency!

Hello! I've driven the Hankook Ventus Prime 4 in 205/55 R16 size with 91H indexes for about 1500 km. I really can't say anything bad about the tires. Great handling on the dry road. On the rough stuff tire behaves nice. When the road is wet grip level is amazing. Comfort is ok, maybe could be better considering the height of the tire wall but that is the only thing that could improve. Fuel consumption is ok.
