very good
Ranked #4 of 6
4th of 6, final rating "Very good". The Hankook delivered excellent snow performance with outstanding balance, strong cornering grip and generous reserves, proving particularly well-suited to the powerful BMW; it was among the best in both objective and subjective snow handling and also topped objective and subjective wet handling tests as well as cross aquaplaning. On wet roads it still showed safe understeer despite some lateral-guidance weaknesses in dynamic cornering—sluggish turn‑in and limited reserves. On dry asphalt it suffered from slow turn‑in, reduced grip reserves and somewhat longer braking distances, plus comfort shortcomings and noticeable rolling noise.
