Today, we compare two popular summer tyres that have had a big impact in the tyre market: the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 and the Kleber Dynaxer HP4. Both tyres come with their benefits and deficits. Therefore, it's crucial to make an informed decision based on your specific driving conditions and requirements.

Our rating for the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 stands at 72%. The tyre thrives especially in dry conditions, demonstrating superb dry braking and handling. Its performance shines in tests by Autobild, where it clinched the top position out of 53 tyres, outclassing its competitors in dry braking, dry handling, and wet braking.

However, the Hankook Ventus Prime 3 K125 has been succeeded by the Hankook Ventus Prime 4, which is expected to improve on the features and performance of the K125 model. On the other hand, taking into account the tyres' performance in the ADAC and ACE tests, its ranking is lower, specifically, 8th out of 18 and 9 respectively, signifying that there might be some room for improvement in certain aspects.

The Kleber Dynaxer HP4, on the other hand, scores an 82% on our rating scale. It's particularly applauded for its quiet exterior noise and comfort. In terms of testing positions, it performed well in the ACE test, claiming the 6th position out of 9. However, it is outperformed in the ADAC and Autobild tests, ranking 10th out of 18 and 14th out of 53 respectively.

Autobild's recent 2022 summary of the Dynaxer HP4 highlights its strong aquaplaning properties, short dry and wet braking distances, comfortable ride, and quiet rolling noise. However, it also points out possible downsides, such as mediocre grip in wet conditions, a slightly delayed steering response, and a tendency for understeering on dry tracks.

To conclude, the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 excels in dry conditions but is overall outshined by the newer Hankook Ventus Prime 4. The Kleber Dynaxer HP4 is a strong competitor, known for its comfort and low noise, but has its share of flaws in wet conditions and steering response. Your final decision should be based on your specific driving style, conditions, and preferences.
