Hankook Optimo H431
FEATURES AND BENEFITS

OVERVIEW
The Hankook Optimo H431 is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. Hankook offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.
The symmetric ribbed tread pattern maintains the tire's road contact at all times. In this manner, the tire upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability significantly. The steering 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 shoulder pattern's ribbed block placement upgrades the maneuvering ability. These tread elements increase the cornering power by providing additional biting edges to grip the road surface during maneuvering. This combination enables the driver to confidently control the vehicle throughout its performance.
The tread design and the all season compound increase the year round traction. The symmetric ribbed tread pattern with the ideal tread elements increases the grip the tire has on the road surface with extra biting edges. The durable all weather compound manages to optimize the rubber flexibility in various temperatures, from freezing winter to high-heat summer conditions. The tread design's four circumferential grooves help eliminate water and slush from the footprint, which boosts the tire's hydroplaning resistance. As a result, the tire guarantees exceptional dry, wet and winter weather road grip and high driving safety levels.
The Optimo H431 also guarantees an enjoyable performance. The tread design manages to lower the road noise and road vibration levels while the tires are in motion. The ribbed tread design and the flat footprint enable the tire's close surface contact throughout the drive. This allows the tire to absorb the shock of driving, greatly lowering the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. On the other hand, the tread's versatile siping placement creates a variable pitch sequence. This sequence generates a special sound frequency to negate the generated soundwaves before they can reach the vehicle's cabin. In this manner, road and tread pattern noise cannot disrupt the passenger's comfort, promoting a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
