  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I keep reading several posts from various websites how cheap they went by using Hankook tires on the new Genesis. Little do they know how wrong they are just like those who need the prestige of the brand and tend to ignore the Genesis as a true luxury vehicle. They are actually rated #1 on Tire Rack.

Like the other systems on the car demonstrates they’ve learned from their past and put together a noteworthy luxury car. I’m sure the tires fell under that scrutiny especially considering the choice of the Dunlops in the past.
 
Do they make Hankooks for the 2011 4.6 18" wheels?
 
Looking to update and upgrade your Genesis luxury sport automobile? Look no further than right here in our own forum store - where orders are shipped immediately!
The middle East version is getting the Dunlop tires on the 19inch wheels so I guess over time we will get a good idea how they compare. I suspect here they won't be all seasons, but rather summer.
 
I am running 245/45/19 S1 Noble2s on my car. They are awful. It's a joke when a UHP all-season offers less traction and bite than smaller (235) touring all-seasons (the stock Contis). They are much much louder too, so everything about them is worse than the tires that came on the car.
