Hankook Winter I*Cept X RW10 225/60 R17 99T

Hankook Winter I*Cept X RW10 dilutes the hegemony of the Scandinavians in the Nordic segment of non-studded winter tyres. The brainchild of the South Korean tyre manufacturer demonstrates responsive responses to driver actions, excellent grip on snow-covered road surfaces and improved hydroplaning resistance. But first things first.

tenacious grip

The model uses a number of proprietary technologies aimed at improving the efficiency of the tyre in the changeable weather conditions of winter. So, the edges of the tread blocks, pointed in three projections, increase the contact area of the tyre with a slippery surface. Together with them, a dense network of lamellas works side by side, forming additional gripping edges of the coated treadmill under the wheels of the car.

Water absorption

Another feature of the Hankook Winter I*Cept X RW10 is Spuit micro-pumps in the tread. They absorb the water film at the moment the tyre is pressed against the icy roadway and are removed after the tyre passes the contact patch. Technologies are accompanied by inclined drainage grooves, put on guard against hydroplaning and slashplanning.

Strengthening positions

Among other significant advantages of the model are enhanced traction on snowy roads, excellent braking response, stability in corners and during active manoeuvring. The retribution for the directional "drawing" of the tyre tread was only a slightly increased rolling noise. However, on a car with good sound insulation, the measured rustling of the tyre does not cause absolutely no trouble.
