Technical information
Focus: Eco
Economy tyres are built around low rolling resistance — the engine spends less effort keeping the wheel turning, and that shows up at the pump. Hankook IK01 ION EVO is one of them. The price is usually a harder compound: on a wet road you need to brake earlier and carry more margin into corners. In return they cover more kilometres than softer compounds. Leading manufacturers keep narrowing the wet-grip gap with new compounds, but a difference between an economy and a standard tyre is normally still there.

What owners say
<p>Initially, I was very enthusiastic about these tires. Although they didn't offer quite as much grip or as sharp a steering feel as the factory-fitted Pirelli P Zero tires on the Model 3 Performance (in dry and warm conditions), they were at least as quiet, performed much better in wet and cold conditions, and were more energy-efficient.</p><p>After more than 30,000 km (approximately 19,000 miles), however, my opinion has changed somewhat. There is still around 3.8 mm of tread remaining on the inner side of the tires all around. I've noticed that grip, particularly in corners, has decreased, and the ride has become slightly less comfortable. That said, they are still very energy-efficient.
I'm not sure I would buy them again. I do miss the sporty handling I had with the Pirellis. Perhaps I should consider the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 T0 instead in the near future.</p>
On my Tesla model 3 Highland. All good grip in dry and wet conditions, the handling is not that great. In the beginning really low noise, as wear starts to add up on the sides, noise increases
The braking was terrible. Stay away from it. It skidded on dry ground. The tires are very soft, but it leaned into corners.
I changed to the Hankook iON Evo after my tyre shop recommended it as a better choice, but I immediately felt a big drop compared to my previous Bridgestone Potenza Sport. The tyres feel slippery when moving off and even skidded on me during a right turn at around 60 km/h, which was quite dangerous.
While comfort and noise levels are decent, the grip and handling are nowhere near what I expected. I only used them for about 5 months, but I’ve already lost confidence and decided to replace them. It seems this tyre is really more suited for EVs, not for petrol cars if you drive a bit more aggressively.
Model 3 Rwd.
Fronts did 45k miles rear did 25k miles.
Could have pushed them more but became noisy at the end.
Efficiency amazing 180-190wh/mile. Cornering and traction amazing. Noise 2-3 dB lower cabin noise than my old PS4.
Amazing purchase.
Went back to them after having Continental Ultra contact NXT.
Strongly recommend. These are not the AS tyres.
AA traction and A temperature. 320 tread wear.
