Technical information
Focus: Standard
The largest and best-selling category, and Hankook H740 KINERGY 4S belongs to it. No single property is pushed here at the expense of the others — comfort, grip, noise and tread life keep a sensible balance. For most drivers it is the safest bet: the tyre behaves predictably in the dry and in the wet and covers a decent number of kilometres.

What owners say
These tyres have so much grip, that the human brain cannot resist such lateral acceleration. And I am not exaggerating.
As you can see in the attached photo, I raced a slalom last week with my Renault Supercinq GTR.
Due to the tremendous acceleration, I was instantly knocked out and I have just woken up again 5 minutes ago.
They even tell me that I didn't finish last in the slalom... I don't know if it's true or not, because I was unconscious.
In every case, here you have the link to my run in the slalom:

Overall I am satisfied about my decision to buy them, but I was disappointed about the fact they wore very fast, faster than expected, after 58 000 km - compared with the Continental stock tires. I had another pairs of tires ALL SEASONS CONTINENTAL ALLSEASONCONTACT (I was happy with them, too). Even now, after 2 years, on dry surface the Hankooks are almost freezing my Duster (1.6, 4 x 4, petrol, 2016) when a person is appearing from nowhere at a pedestrian cross (having 50 km/h). During work time I am driving 200 km / 5 days. On highways wet surfaces I had full control. I drove on mud, too, they kept me going forward. Slowly. but surely. In summer times I am going to mountains roads and hilltops, nothing special, no aggressive off-road, just pebbled, dust and forest roads. On forest and pebbled roads they behaved very well, but there were noisy. I used them in the winter on snow on Transfagarasan from Capra Chalet till Salvamont Arges refuge Cota 2000. I won`t buy them again because they wore (as I mentioned) too fast.
I recently got a flat so I took my car in to my trusted car maintenance folks and they said they couldn't fix it, or put on two of the four tires because of the tread wear on them. I have a 2021 Honda CR-V and these were the stock tires Honda opted to put on the car. At roughly 24,000 miles I need new tires. This is absurd. Most of the tires this size are rated for a minimum 50K miles and I got less than half. In some places I've seen these tires rated for 70K. Absurd. I've never liked the noise from these tires or the handling but didn't realize until today just how cheap these tires actually are. Never Hankook again and maybe not Honda again if this is the cheap tire they are opting to put on their cars. Additionally, Honda doesn't cover these tires in their warranty, they expect the tire manufacturer to cover them. Guess what, Hankook doesn't provide a mileage minimum on their tires, likely because they know how awful and cheap these tires are as well. HORRIBLE customer experience.
Replaced some old Hankook summer tyres in October 2015 with these Hankook H740 4S tyres as I wanted better wet and snow grip. I was limited for choice due to uncommon tyre size and didn't want directional tyres as I had a full size alloy spare. The 2nd day after fitting I had to travel on the M62 and was caught in a torrential rain storm. Cars if front of me started drifting all ways after hitting a huge area of standing water, so I braced myself, but needn't have worried. These Hankook H740 4S tyres took it all in their stride and the car stayed in a straight line with no effort from me. Handling is great in all conditions. They have now done 16,000 miles and at my last service 2 months ago I was told they would easily last another year at least, based on my requirements, as I always replace tyres when the tread gets below 4mm. I shall replace them with the same ones when required.
Dangerous in wet breaking. ABS always on, wet seems snow. Bad even in dry roads. Never again
