Kinergy is a brand under Hankook. The tire size is 235/65R17. Hankook was established in 1941 as Korea's first tire company. Hankook supplies radial tires for light trucks, SUVs, trucks, buses, and special racing vehicles. With five R&D centers worldwide and three regional headquarters (China, Europe, and the Americas), Hankook tires are distributed in 180 countries globally. When using Kinergy tires in daily driving, pay attention to the following points: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread pattern wears flat, it will lose its drainage and anti-skid functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks may also pose hidden dangers of tire blowouts during high-speed driving. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles lodged in the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that may deteriorate rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool down overheated tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires are prone to overheating, and tire pressure may increase. In such cases, park to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this may cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the road surface.
Kinergy is a series under Kumho Tire, focusing on energy-saving, comfort, and cost-effective products. I've been using the Kinergy series for over half a year now, mainly for my daily commute, and it's been exceptionally fuel-efficient, saving me around a hundred yuan on gas each month. The ride is very quiet, especially on highways where the tire noise is so minimal that I can clearly hear the radio, significantly improving comfort. The tire design emphasizes low rolling resistance, making it ideal for city roads and daily driving, with good wet traction for added safety. The price is affordable, and the tires are durable after installation, reducing the need for frequent replacements. If you're on a budget but still want a smooth driving experience, Kinergy is a great choice, perfect for working-class family users like me.
