Hankook Winter I*Cept RS3 W462 205/55 R16 91H

At the beginning of 2022, Hankook's range of winter friction tyres was expanded with the balanced I*Cept RS3 W462. And that's what makes her so good.

Inverted Design

The tyre has received an inverted V-shaped tread design, which shows high performance on snow, wet roads and dry pavement. What does "inverted" mean? The tread pattern in the tyre is complemented by diagonal sipes, directed in reverse order relative to the placement of the main drainage grooves. This scheme is used to enhance the traction and braking properties of rubber on snow.

Safe driving

The work of zigzag three-dimensional sipes, which are tightly cut in the functional blocks of the tread, is aimed at improving the tyre's grip. The model quickly responds to steering turns and provides quick braking in emergency situations on winter roads. Additional small grooves along the edges of the main drainage channels of the tyre are responsible for the lateral stability of the machine in snowy corners.

Efficient drainage

The tasks of removing water, dirt and melted snow from the contact patch of the tyre with the roadway are assigned to a developed drainage network with profiled water grooves. Rubber quickly self-cleansing, preventing the possibility of the car falling into aquaplaning. The compound of the model is prepared according to a special recipe with the addition of coniferous oil. This means that the tyre does not lose elasticity at low negative outdoor temperatures.
