HANKOOK RS-2

[Saabretooth]

Sorry buddy! I was too busy the last weekend and this week. I am not even sure if I can come in this sunday. I went past your shop at outram a few times already this week, but no chance to stop.

 

I am on a Saab, much much heavier than an alfa. I will definitely want to come in.

 

If I drive fast, it sounds like normal noisy tires, but if its slower, I get a whup whup whup type of sound.

More than 30,000km liao. Won't be changing tyres cos scraping car in a few months time.

[Rickyokc]

forget abt 451 its a old model stamford is trying clear.cant even pit hankook 104 how to compare with the RS2.

[EventH]

yah old model ... but back then,1 year ago, its was still top the line falken street tyre after the semi slick Azenis 215. FK452 is the replacement. Hence Stamford is clearing these old tyres at pretty reasonable prices. I didn't get them from Stamford though.

 

Are you really sure it cannot compare to K104?

Give me a tyre of my size, reasonable perf for sub $200 each, I surely would buy.

Oh ... I like the tread design ... looks aggressive.

i m not sure of 1010tire because they put the hankook lowest range h405 rating higher than the other higher range hankook.i use to look more to auto bild mag from germany which is say to have the largest distribution in europe.to me othsu is a subsidary of sumitiomo . my thinking is that if they hv beteer technology im sure they will give to their flagship brand first dunlop then sumitomo last to falken.just like bridgestone i dont think u will find a better from firestone than bridgestone by comparing apple to apple.
