Technology

  • The Hankook Dynapro HT tread is molded into a computer-generated symmetric tread design which helps in noise reduction, even wear, and improved traction.
  • Built with a stable shoulder that gives a better steering response while driving.
  • Its lateral notches for increased traction on wet driving surfaces and on light snow.
  • Its intermediate tread blocks feature interlocking geometry and this helps preserve its block stability while improving its handling, as well as its traction on wet surfaces.
  • Its high-stiffness continuous center rib enhances steering response and gives straight-line tracking.
  • The four circumferential grooves channel water and help avoid hydroplaning with better traction on wet surfaces.
  • The tread is designed with zigzag sipes and this increase the number of biting edges for improved traction when driving on snow- or ice-covered driving surface.
  • The interior of the tire is equipped with two steel belts that are reinforced with spirally wrapped nylon for added strength and durability of the tire.

Performance

The Hankook Dynapro HT RH12 provides great traction for drivers when driving on dry and wet surfaces, even on light snow.

Drivers also get a good steering response.

Noise level is minimal and you can enjoy a good and comfortable drive with this tire on your wheels.

On Dry Surface

Speaking of pavements and dry roads, you might not get the level of an outstanding summer tire and all its summer feel, but you cannot deny that this tire does not disappoint in its performance when driving on a dry surface.

Or even while negotiating a sharp bend on a dry surface, you still feel in control because you will not feel its traction slipping away.

On Wet Surface

There is no risk of hydroplaning in the rain or on the wet driving surface.

However, it does not give maximum performance on wet surfaces but you can be assured it will give an above-average performance.

On Snow Surface

As an all-season tire, you will get a good performance on light snow with this tire but it is not recommended while it is freezing, on heavy snow, or in extreme winter conditions.

In these cases, you are better off with winter tires.
