Specifications

Technical information

Our classification not an official manufacturer classification

Focus: Sport

With sport tyres, grip in every situation is what decides — under hard acceleration, under braking, in the dry and in the wet. Hankook K127 VENTUS S1 EVO3 belongs to this group. Stability at higher speeds and precision through corners come on top of that. One thing drivers often underestimate when buying: grip comes from a softer compound, and a softer compound wears faster. Where a standard tyre covers roughly 40,000 km, a sport tyre manages about 20,000 to 30,000 km — and considerably less with a sharper driving style or a heavier, more powerful car.
