Today's consumers want products that are built to last, and drivers are no different when it comes to their tires. Knowing this, Hankook built the Optimo (H725) to give drivers of coupes, sedans, CUVs, and SUVs a long tread life plus strong traction and performance year-round. A simple shoulder design reduces irregular wear to promote a longer service life, and the Optimo (H725)'s abrasion resistant rubber compound protects the tire from cuts, chips, and other damage. Wide grooves within the tread of the Optimo (H725) drain water out of the tire to reduce the risk of hydroplaning on wet roads, while tiny slits within the tire that are known as kerfs cut into ice and snow for consistent traction in winter weather. Specially designed tread blocks provide stability to reduce stopping distances, and the Optimo (H725)'s light belt cord inside of the tire reduces rolling resistance to help drivers save at the pumps.
