The Hankook Optimo H426 is a grand touring all-season tire engineered to provide a comfortable and predictable driving experience for coupes, sedans, and CUVs. It's designed for drivers who prioritize a smooth, quiet ride and long tread life.
The Optimo H426 incorporates a symmetric, independent block tread design that aims to deliver reliable traction in dry, wet, and even light snow conditions. The tire's construction includes twin steel belts reinforced by nylon to stabilize the tread area, along with a polyester cord body to help cushion the ride. A diamond-shaped block design enhances handling and resists hydroplaning by efficiently evacuating water. The rib-type shoulder block is designed to promote even wear and reduce road noise.
The tire carries a UTQG treadwear rating of 440. This tire is often chosen as original equipment by vehicle manufacturers, indicating its suitability for a broad range of passenger vehicles. The Optimo H426 aims to provide a balance of comfort, handling, and all-season capability.
