RH06 VENTUS ST

I drove this tire on a Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit WK2 3.0 Diesel. The tire was very good in dry conditions and okay in the wet. When driving through more water, like puddles, you could feel some resistance. Otherwise, it performed well. It was also satisfactory in light off-road conditions. The wear was pleasantly low as well. I would buy it again.

I drive a 2014 Jeep grand Cherokee diesel that has been graphed to produce 700 nm torque for towing. I’m o second set of these tires and find them fabulous. They always wear evenly but I rotate front to rear a couple of times over their lifetime. I always run nitrogen this keeps towing temperatures very stable it’s a must as I’m an aircraft engineer and understand this. Will I use again ? A big yes they are the best tires I have ever had on my vehicles. Side note not prone to puncturing as well

Quiet, good grip dry wet and snow , very good wear and good price .

I have driven around 10k kms with these tyres on my 2013 Mercedes GL(S) 350 CDI this year (2021). As I have four kids we are quite heavily loaded most of the times. Previously I had Michelin Latitude Tour HP 265/60 R18 (MO) on and I have to tell: the two tires have as good as nothing in common. While the Michelin did not show a lot of grip on dry road and even less on wet with horrible performance on aquaplaning these new Hankook tyres are very good on dry surface and amazing on wet. Got into a heavy rain in Italy this summer - on the highway all other drivers stopped expect for large trailers and us. It was at least 5 cms of water on the highway and we got stable. No aquaplaning at all, no sliding no drifting not even at higher speeds over 100 km/h - you wonder how the tires manage this at all??? But you know, all coins have two sides, so what you get for this excellent performance on dry and wet (and also in mud of course) you have to pay with less comfort (and probably faster wear) on the other side. When I put on these new tyres this spring (after my Toyo Open Country winter tyres) I was shocked. I even told my wife, let's sell these after summer and get new ones for next season. The reason: they are loud. No, not a bit loud. They sound as if you had superhard offroad tyre on your SUV. And no matter whether you drive with 2.5 bars or 3.0 bars. These tyres are extremely loud and especially on low speeds (they are close to unbearable to my ears). The music starts at around 60 kmh and lasts till around 120-130 then wind and engine noise would take over the lead. I am still considering selling them but you know: the performance in wet is so unbelievably amazing... I might keep them. Buyin them again? Let's see in four years. If the manufacturer manages to do something with the noise, these tires are could beat all the others. But, somehow, I think this is the tradeoff: grip vs comfort.

I have driven (Jeep Grand Cherokee crd 2014) nearly 35000 miles on a set of these tyres and have to say the are probably the best tyres I have ever own. I drive both motorway and country lanes about 50/50. The wet grip is exceptional, whilst the dry grip is as good as my previous Continental set. However the real feature has been the wear. I still have what looks like a this a third of the tread left until I get to the worn indicators. The feel and comfort are better than the Continentals and certainly the overall winter grip in Slush and water feels far superior!
