Hankook Ventus S1 evo2 K117B
Ultra-high performance tyre · 225/45R18

Understand this tyre
This runflat ultra-high performance tyre from Hankook targets premium and luxury vehicles, balancing wet and dry handling through groove positioning and a triple tread block design that maintains contact patch as it wears. An intercooler system manages heat at speed, aero sidewall dimples reduce drag, and the tyre aims to deliver precise cornering, shorter braking distances and reduced road noise on New Zealand roads.
- Drive a premium or luxury car with runflat capability
- Want confident dry traction that holds up as the tyre wears
- Push your car on New Zealand back roads and need high-speed stability
- Value shorter braking distances in wet and dry conditions
- Want the quietest, most cushioned ride — runflats and UHP stiffness trade away comfort
- Need a budget option — this sits in the premium price tier

Needed full set of new tyres and wheel alignment. Got 3 local quotes from Otara, Papatoetoe & Otahuhu. Advantage turned out so much more cheaper. They were awesome. Service great, experience on point and the general atmosphere was very welcoming.

Haven't used their services before, but just had an extremely dangerous experience with one of their company vehicles on the motorway. The man was lane splitting and dangerously cutting off cars in traffic. I reckon i wont ever use the service purely from that guy.

Loved the service very effective. When I enquire about wheel alignment. The 3 guys were Phillipines. Thank you very much. I will be back for my wheel alignment.
