janskim Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I have yet to find anything positive about this tire in terms of its performance. From what I've seen its another Firestone disaster in the making for us that have to deal with snow and driving in it. For instance look at the rating on tire rack. Is this tire is just getting a bad wrap?????? Come on all you owners that took delivery on Limited's in snowy areas pipe in here. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Hankook&tireModel=Optimo+H426 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My new Explorer road and handled like a dream today and I love how the tires performed so far. Everything was tight in hard turns even with 5 people in the car and there was no road noise at all. This is my first experience with Hankook tires and I'm impressed so far. Edited February 16, 2011 by GaryG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janskim Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 I've read some other posts on the other site where owners with Limiteds have had issues in the snow. We'll see on what others may chime in with here. Not sure if I will get a chance to try the new toy in the snow this winter. Congrats on your new ride!!!!!!
