The Bottom Line
The Hankook Optimo H426 is best suited for drivers seeking comfort and quietness in a grand touring all-season tire, backed by a 60,000-mile warranty. However, its lower treadwear rating and 'R' speed rating might be a concern for those looking for longevity and higher speed capability.
