Hankook Kinergy ST (H735) 175/65R15 84H

Glad to see Amazon upset the tire market with these tires. These are the 2nd set purchased, one for a 2007 G35x and now a 2012 Camry SE 4-cyl (17" wheels). I'm in my 60s, worked as a tire mechanic as a young adult, and have purchased many sets of tires in my lifetime. This Hankook tire is as good as any of them, including any Michelin version out there. The tires wear and balance well. Amazon did its homework carrying this brand. For now, this is the best tire deal out there for most who just want solid OEM replacement tires. Tire Rotation Tip: 1. rotate your tires every 6,000 mi (except for the first time, do it at 3,000 mi*). Tip 2. criss-cross the tires at each rotation* (the Owners Manual tells you otherwise and my experience says otherwise). * The following assumes your vehicle's wheel alignment is within spec. If you criss-cross your tire rotation at each interval (Tip #2), each tire spins in the opposite after rotating. If this makes sense, consider brand new tires to have a ZERO directional mile count. The goal is to not allow your tires to spin more than 3,000 mi in either direction. So, that's why rotate at 3,000 mi on the first rotation interval. During the 2nd interval, after 3,000 mi of tire spinning, you're back to a ZERO directional mile count. You might as well just leave the tires alone and allow them to spin another 3,000 mi so now you have spun 3,000 mi off of the ZERO direction mile count. Hence, why you wait to rotate at 6,000mi on the 2nd thru nth intervals. Truck tires GREATLY benefit from this scheme because of the size of the rubber chunks that make up the tire. Tire "singing" is caused by the heel-toe wear on those rubber chunks and using this rotation scheme keeps the heel-toe wear equalized over time. This condition is especially prone to all-terrain tires. Use this rotation scheme and your tires will lose their voice over the wear life of your tires. For passenger vehicles with normal to smaller sized tires, you can likely get away with a 4,000mi/8,000mi scheme and not worry about tire singing. One caveat: if your vehicle's alignment is not right, forget the above. Avoid curbs and major potholes and you should be good. Tire singing is big profit for tire shops and the answer is always: "you need an alignment". That may be true. You also just may need to rotate your tires as mentioned above. Also, don't over-torque your lugs (see mfg specs and if you can't find it, use 80 ft lbs to be safe). Many tire shops will torque them to 150 lbs or more causing rotor warping. If you can learn to safely rotate tires yourself (see YouTube for tips), you can save time and money while doing it right. Last tip, inflate your tires to 35psi regardless of what your car says. It's a safe pressure that will roll with little resistance and provide even tread across the width of the tire. Plenty will argue my tire science, but, I get 90,000 mi out of my 2005 Toyota Tacoma tires and the roll as smooth and quietly at 90k as they did at ZERO mi.🙂

Hankook Kinergy ST (H735) 225/70R16 103T All Season Touring Tire - EXCELLENT! Installed 4 tires on a 2004 Toyota Highlander in SC - handles rain very well and very smooth tire handling - grip - zero noise level. Had UPS delivered to mechanic shop - zero trouble - arrived a day early! $525 for 4 tires ZERO shipping fee with PRIME - mechanic shop installed $25 per tire. If I had used mechanic’s tire distributor - it would have been $125 per tire + 25% handling fee then tax - PER TIRE - in this Tariff war - the hell with using a distributor - get smart - do your research and save the money Used Amazon’s auto parts match and it was 100% accurate - found out I had wrong tires installed on used vehicle that I purchased

I have Kinergy 735's on my CRV, SW2, and 525i and absolutely love them. Being a long tread life tire they have good wet weather traction. Very low noise. Insanely good mileage compared to Nitto 650, Goodyear Assurances, Michelin MXV, Cooper, BFG and Yoko the only tires that I have owned in the past. The MXV's were good but tread life wasnt that great. Of course that was two decades ago. Anyways. Something happened to me that just absolutely solidified my belief in these tires. A few months ago in my CRV I was headed home late in the evening dark as heck and was driving past my local malls when a group of teenage kids just pops out from the median into my lane. Obstructed by the median art work, the darkness of the night I thought for sure I was going to hit them. At least two of them. So as they froze like dang deer often do I slam the brakes and in the midst of pushing the horn I manage to turn the wipers on, turned the headlights off and high beam them all at the same time. Never did get to the horn. At a speed of 35mph I manage to stop about ten yards short from where they were. Without the tires ever having lost traction or the brakes locking up. Did I mention the road way was wet from having rained earlier in the day. I could credit the brake pads or the vehicle itself but I feel it was primarily the Hankook kinergys that saved those kids that day. Even with 20k miles on them at the time they did their job. And the kids they just trot right along. La la la la. Learn how to freakin push a crosswalk button dangit.

This review will be an ongoing one, as I will attempt to keep updating it as long as these tires last. For reference: I drive a V6 Nissan Altima. 2,500 miles: So far these tires have been great. They have performed well on both back winding roads and highway. They look good, and grip the road nicely. They have performed wonderfully in the rain, as I haven’t hydroplaned once, and the grip has yet to give. Have yet to drive them in snow. Overall my biggest complaint so far is the tire noise, these tires are not loud, but they are not quiet either. 10,000 miles: Overall still really liking these tires. Have had them on for about 9 months now and they have proven themselves over that time. The tread has held up nicely so far, I've rotated the tires twice since I've had them on and I could (hopefully) see them lasting another 20,000+ miles. I took a 1,500 mile round trip to Vermont for a snowboarding trip in January, and they managed to handle a surprise 1 inch snowfall on the trip up. Handled the snow great, didn't slip at all and was going up/down a lot of hills. I have hydroplaned a few times in them but I would bet any tires would do the same. The road noise has lowered a little bit since breaking them in, but it is still the biggest downfall of these otherwise great tires.

Hold air and have tread, what more could I ask for?

Really good quality tires. Took them and had them put on and haven’t had any problems. Really good price for what your getting
