Hankook 4S2 tires are effective when new. But in use, they are of very poor quality. Around 15,000 km, the inner treads of the tire become deformed. And this happens every time. I'm on my second set of tires, and the diagnosis is the same. I advise against buying this type of tire; while they may be effective and cheaper than other brands initially, they are much more expensive to run because they need to be replaced frequently.

Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Volkswagen Golf 6 2.0 TDI 110hp drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Possibly the worst tyres I've ever had on the car. Grip was terrible from new. In any wet conditions there were spinning wheels taking off from a junction, slipping on roundabouts, squeals on corners. May be due to the car itself but they wore slowly across the main tyre surface but very quickly on inner edge. Would absolutely avoid.
Mind that my car is now 16 y/o, but overall I didn’t love these tires. They have plenty of grip in the dry, but are quite average in the wet. They feel loose around the dead zone, and at turn-in they seem to flex a lot, requiring a lot of steering angle at first. After a while they start to grip better, but it’s still tricky to keep a consistent line, with little feedback from the road.
They’re fitted to 6.5'' wide wheels, which makes them bulge slightly, probably adding to this weird feeling.
