HANKOOK on VW JETTA

[Robertoon]

u r right in a way.

 

In Singapore, i will test the tyre on our local condition before i decide to sell here or not. If i find the range not having good point for sales, i will not launches it...

[Boyboy]

is tt why ventus HR2 seems to not be very promoted?

 

anyway, i guess performance under local conditions indeed matter the most..

[Jonbummer]

bro, how's the HR2 u have on?

me thinking of changing tyres towards the end of the year

and i saw HR2 which seems mightily fine too

 

and hope the price is less costly too.

I've been using the 17" S1 Evo since last year Aug....i would say this is a good quality product i don't get a single cent in promoting this, i just a user so pls don't fire me

[Robertoon]

HR2 is a budget range of HANKOOK. So price is reasonable.

[Jonbummer]

hi bro, thanks for the heads up

it's budget range but the thread design looks ok to me leh

 

anyway will pop by one of your shop later towards the end of

this year.

 

 

PS, realised your website do not show the sizes for respective

tyres.

[Boyboy]

what kinda driving? i feel it's not worthwhile leh.. cos i got it from small tyre shop. hankook at toh guan doesn't stock it.

 

the price i got it was higher than the price i wud have paid for V8Rs, which i was told by the folks at hankook is a better tyre. so just go with v8Rs. HR2 performance so-so only. sidewalls a tad soft, so ride quality is good. more comfort-based tyre.

 

i only used it on the rear though. the lateral grip in the wet is atrocious. it broke away without warning during damp track session at PG. REPEATEDLY. also goes to show that RS2 (my front tyre) has better lateral wet grip, though that is independant of wet braking or aquaplaning resistance...

[Jonbummer]

oh i see.... quite scary then

V8RS hmmm

a pity as i think they do not have R14 for this model.

 

RS2 is also on my list, a great tyre for a good price

i think

 

thanks for the review!

[The01]

Sorry to OT. Is it true that OEM tyres are better than those on the markets? Anyone cares to oblidge. Thanks.

[Robertoon]

whats yr actual 14 size?

 

HR2 only have 15 and above....

[Hamburger]

oem tyre is budget tyre made for the masses.

[Jonbummer]

me using a 185/65R14 now, a certain F brand

a tad noisy so thinking and saving to change

them in about few months time

 

not inclined to upsize to 15", which actually

will give me more tyre choices

 

maybe one of these day will pop into one of ur

shop to look look see see

[inlinesix]

Bro, i m using tis size. 4 tis size, it is call V2 rather than V6. Everything is d same except d name.

[Jonbummer]

oh.... see, ignorant me!

 

thanks
