Strengths — Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750

• Dry handling & braking: multiple tests note the Kinergy 4S2 as one of the best in dry handling with short dry braking distances.

Weaknesses — Hankook

• Aquaplaning resistance: TyreReviews points to relatively poor aquaplaning performance — a notable shortcoming in heavy wet conditions.


• Mixed wet braking: some tests mention slightly extended wet braking compared with sportier summer-focused tyres.

Strengths — Kleber Quadraxer 3

• Snow grip & winter-level performance: repeatedly described as the “snow king” with exceptional traction, braking and handling in snow — often close to winter-tyre levels.


• Aquaplaning & wet braking: Autobild and TyreReviews note good aquaplaning resistance and solid wet braking performance.


• Comfort: high comfort and ride quality are frequently praised.

Weaknesses — Kleber

• Rolling resistance: generally higher than average, which can mean slightly worse fuel economy.

Head-to-head verdict

If you prioritize a well-rounded, efficient tyre with excellent dry handling, low rolling resistance and solid all-season balance, the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 is the stronger choice overall — it consistently finishes a notch ahead in comparative tests and carries a higher aggregated rating. If your driving includes frequent winter conditions and you value best-in-class snow grip and comfort, the Kleber Quadraxer 3 is the better specialist: it delivers outstanding performance on snow and good wet braking, though at the cost of higher rolling resistance and slightly compromised wet steering feel.

Practical recommendation: choose the Hankook for a fuel-efficient, balanced all-season performer with top dry manners; choose the Kleber if winter traction and comfort are your top priorities. For manufacturer details visit Hankook and Kleber.
