Hankook Ventus S1 Noble2 H452
The Bottom Line
The Ventus S1 Noble2 H452 is a solid choice for drivers focused on dry grip and handling, backed by a 50,000-mile warranty. However, its wet grip performance is lacking, which could be a dealbreaker in rainy regions.
Important Note
Wet grip is subpar, making it less suitable for areas with frequent rain.
Pros
- Dry grip score of 9 makes it a strong performer on dry pavement, ideal for spirited driving.
- Handling score of 9 ensures precise steering response, enhancing the driving experience in dynamic conditions.
- 50,000-mile treadwear warranty is generous for an ultra-high performance summer tire, offering peace of mind for longer-term use.
Cons
- Wet grip score of 5 is below what you'd expect from a performance tire, which could be a concern in rainy conditions.
- Comfort score of 6 suggests a stiffer ride compared to some competitors, which might be noticeable on longer trips.
- The Yokohama ADVAN Sport offers better wet performance, which may be a deciding factor for those in wetter climates.
