[intensifi]

My tire guy tells me he can now buy them.

Has anyone tried them yet?

I won't use them until I see some good winter performance reviews. I suspect, since they are optimized for low noise and low rolling resistance, that they will be pretty bad in the slick stuff.

Hoping I am pleasantly surprised though.

I just purchased mine yesterday from Sears. They are on sale. I paid $256 per tire. Initially I had to ask around and research what the letter (H) in the 103H means. It turns out it's for the max speed you can travel under optimal conditions. So I went with the 225/55R19 103(V). The max speed for the (V) is 149 mph.

H tires are rated up to 130mph, no variant of the Mach-E exceeds that.

I’m looking at these for a GT

Yeah sadly they only seem to have a 255/45 r19. 255/50 r19 would be stock size. Reality is it's only a couple mm less height. 104W rating

Hows this. As far as i can find Sears Auto is closed forever.

Its time to get my GT some new shoes and I don't want summers anymore since I drive it year round and don't want to manage a second set of wheels and tires. I was looking at these and they SAY they're all season, but this cross section of the tire leaves me suspicious....

Ride comfort and rolling resistance will be improved as promised, but these things would hydroplane like a mother in heavy rain and any bit of snow is going to pack into those tight little cervices and turn this tire into greased owl crap. I guess its Michelin or Conti's for me.

I just took a leap of faith and bought these for my MachE Premium AWD, replacing bald Michelin Primacy's after 41K miles. My immediate reaction was... not a mind blowing difference. I'm not sure what I expected, but for my simple needs, it feels like i just put new tires on - plain and simple. Maybe the ride feels a bit more firm - substantial. I have to drive about 300 miles this weekend - I guess we'll see how they perform.

What size did you buy?

I was thinking of adding a bit taller and wider tire to my GT to see if that changes the ride appreciably.

Obviously a few hundred miles have to be driven before the true feel is achieved.

pics of the tire face and tread with wheel turned outward would be appreciated!

I finally got mine put on today. My first impression was the the ride is smoother and quieter. I'm testing the to see if I get better range tomorrow. I'll also install the McGard lugs and wheel locks:

McGard - Black Cone Seat Wheel Installation Kit for 5 Lug Vehicles (M14 x 1.5 Thread Size); Set of 16 Lug Nuts, 4 Wheel Locks

Hankook tire size - 225/55R19 103V

I'll post pictures soon

LRR is not bad traction it's low kinetic energy loss.

They look well siped to me so they are probably on par with a good all season.

Would love a real world test comparison between the Hankooks and the Pirelli P-Zero Elects.

My stock tires just passed inspection (1st inspection). I'm keeping them until they actually need replacement. Going to be a tough choice between the Hankooks, Pirellis, Continentals that have been recommend and the Michelin CC2s.

Anybody have some feedback on the Hankook EVO A/S tires?

I would add the Quatrac Pro to that list. The QTP and the CC2 are the same in efficiency but that QTP is 4 tire rotatable and much better in the wet.

Rotations being very important on a heavy car
