Hankook i*Pike RW11

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Winter weather traction
• Enhanced controllability
• Shortened braking distance

OVERVIEW

The Hankook i*Pike RW11 is a highway terrain, winter tire manufactured for SUVs and light trucks. This model also has some touring, passenger vehicle sizes as well.

The tread design and the winter compound work together to increase the winter weather traction. The 3D siping detail and the optimized directional tread design boost the ice- and snow-covered road gripping ability. The tread's cliff grooves actively resist hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The increased winter weather traction and the exceptional hydroplaning resistance are the result this model received the three mountain peak and snowflake design that indicates the tire's capability to perform in harsher winter conditions.

The i*Pike RW11 is easily controlled. The tread design's continuous center rib keeps the tire's road contact, which upgrades its steering responsiveness and driving stability. The wider tire footprint and the high-density 3D siping detail boosts the braking capability by creating friction at the moment of braking. This effectively shortens the braking distance and guarantees a safer performance. The tiered groove reduces tread flexing while the tires are in motion, which stabilizes the tread elements. The stable tread elements improve the cornering ability and power and promote a safer driving experience.
