Hankook 1021647 Ventus S1 evo2 SUV K117A 235/50R19 99V Summer Performance Tire

The Hankook Ventus S1 evo2 SUV (K117A) is a premium summer performance tire engineered specifically for high-performance luxury SUVs and crossover vehicles. It delivers an outstanding balance of wet and dry traction, reduced braking distances, and low rolling resistance for improved fuel efficiency — making it an ideal choice for performance-oriented SUV and CUV drivers.

Key Features:

• Aqua Driving Control: Four wide circumferential grooves rapidly evacuate water from the contact patch, delivering superior wet-road grip and resistance to hydroplaning while also improving heat dissipation at high speeds.
• Triple Drive Line: The triple driveline tread block design maintains consistent traction performance throughout the full life of the tire, ensuring no loss in grip as the tread wears down to the tread wear indicators (TWI).
• High-Grip Silica Compound: An optimized silica rubber compound enhances both dry and wet traction while simultaneously lowering rolling resistance to support better fuel economy.
• Wide Steel Belt Layer: A reinforced wide steel belt strengthens handling stability and steering response on both wet and dry road surfaces.
• High-Density Rayon & Polyester Carcass: An internal carcass construction of high-density rayon and polyester increases sidewall stiffness and overall durability under load.
• High-Stiffness Bead Filler: Provides enhanced handling precision and sharper steering feel, particularly during cornering at speed.
• Alignment Indicator (VIA Siping): Built-in tread wear indicators allow drivers to visually monitor inner and outer tread wear patterns, making it easy to self-check wheel alignment status without a shop visit.
• Optimized Triple Tread Radius System: Delivers enhanced steering stability and uniform contact with the road surface for confident high-speed handling.
