Strengths and weaknesses — Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750
- Strengths: Exceptional dry handling and short braking distances in many tests, very good wet braking in several independent reviews, low rolling resistance and generally high comfort. Our site rating: 89%.
- Weaknesses: Mixed notes on aquaplaning and winter ability — some tests praise aquaplaning resistance, others report vulnerabilities; a few reports indicate slightly higher exterior noise or only average snow performance. Some tests flagged moderate wear characteristics in older editions.

Head-to-head verdict
When comparing mutual test positions and aggregated scores, the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 comes out ahead overall due to more frequent top placements, superior dry braking and handling, and a higher percentage rating on our site. The Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 remains one of the most balanced all-season choices — particularly for wet roads and snow — and often wins praise for mileage and rolling resistance.
