OVERVIEW

The Hankook Dynapro AS is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for SUVs and light trucks. The model has some touring passenger vehicle sizes as well. Hankook offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with the SUV and passenger vehicle sizes of this model.

The tire promotes great all weather traction. The detailed symmetric tread pattern and the all season tire compound enhance the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. This allows the tire to increase the grip on the road surface throughout the year. The tire compound keeps its flexibility in various weather. The symmetric ribbed tread, with the optimal siping and groove placement, maintains a consistent and firm grip on the road surface. The circumferential groove pattern enhances the wet and winter weather performance with its excellent hydroplaning prevention, as they eliminate water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The better traction and hydroplaning resistance ensure a secure driving experience.

The model's durability is reinforced with its strengthened internal structure. The construction features high-strength steel belts that keep the tire's optimal shape at all times. They boost the strength of the tire's internal structure to enable its heavy-load durability. The structure keeps the ideal tire shape under the driving and load pressure affecting the model. This allows the tire to carry and withstand heavy loads with ease, without deformation of the tire's shape. This steel belt enhancement also manages to stabilize the tread area. It actively prevents tread flexing and evenly distributes the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally dispersed forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoids the formation of irregular tread wear, extending the tread life and the tire's usability.

The tread pattern increases the tire's controllability. The symmetric ribbed tread keeps the tire's constant contact with the road surface, which significantly enhances the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In this manner, the model becomes quicker and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The ribbed pattern's optimal road contact enhances the overall controllability and enables the driver to confidently maneuver the vehicle in all weather.

The Dynapro AS ensures a quiet drive. The symmetric tread design features closed shoulder ribs which prevent airwaves from entering the tire's footprint. As a result, the airwaves are unable to come into contact with the tread elements, which avoids the formation of road and tread pattern noise. The road noise does not reach the vehicle's cabin, which provides a quiet and comfortable performance. The road noise cannot dampen the passengers' comfort which improves the driving enjoyment.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
