255/50R19 Hankook Winter I*Cept Evo4 W340 107V XL

The Hankook Winter i*cept evo4 W340 255/50 R19 sets a new technological standard in the UHP winter tire segment. It is designed for drivers who, even in the changing winter conditions of Europe and the Baltics—where slush and rain often prevail—do not want to sacrifice their car’s sporty dynamics and sharp handling.

Key features of the Hankook Winter i*cept evo4 W340 255/50 R19:

• Advanced directional tread pattern: The new V-shaped pattern with expanded drainage channels rapidly evacuates water and slush, effectively preventing the risk of hydroplaning during thaw periods.

• Enhanced UHP rubber compound: A high silica content combined with innovative polymers ensures traction in moderate sub-zero temperatures while maintaining tread block stiffness, which is critical for sporty driving.

• Optimized 3D sipe structure: Provides the necessary grip edges on snow-covered surfaces by locking together and preventing block deformation during sudden braking or maneuvering on dry asphalt.

• Acoustic and Ride Comfort: The tread block layout and pitch have been specifically designed to minimize road noise, ensuring a quiet ride even at high speeds on the highway.

Detailed Overview:

The Hankook Winter i*cept evo4 W340 prioritizes uncompromising handling and safety in changing weather conditions. Unlike soft-compound winter tires, which can feel “floaty” on dry and wet pavement, the W340 model offers a firm, precise, and immediate response to steering inputs. However, in extremely harsh winter conditions with uncleared or icy roads, these tires will lag behind soft-compound winter tires in terms of performance.
