Thread: 19" Hankook Dynapro ATM RF10

I will report back in a week or so, as I cannot remember what it was like before I increased the pressures. I doubt that there could ever be enough of an improvement in fuel consumption to warrant the terrible ride though.

Hi everyone
I went ahead and replaced the OEM tyres on my 2014 D4 to the RF10's
So far I have done only highway kms and I like it a lot!!
I will give you an update after some time.
Currently running even 40 psi on all 4.

I have done about 40,000km + on my RF10's and been very happy with the Hankooks.

Just returned from Exmouth towing a Swan camper, some national park tracks
( lots of shale rocks ) but nothing to serious. Just noticed the right rear deflating
over a few days when we got back to Perth, so went to the local tyre shop, and it's been pronounced dead, disappointing but the worst part is there is no replacement tyres available here in Perth or at Hankook themselves across Australia.

My friendly Bob Jane here has sourced a replacement from NSW, I could have ordered 1x off tyresales, but would prefer to support my local tyre guy.

Anyone else having trouble sourcing them lately?

I will inspect the damaged tyre and post pictures when the new replacement turns up in a week or so.

Looking at the other 3x tyres, they look like they will last another 30 to 40km,
But will they, who knows until you get that far down the track, I've had the General Grabers, but once they started to wear they sounded like a wheel bearing on the way out!

So looks like Hankooks for a while longer. ( if you can still buy them )

Tyresales still has 2 "types" of RF10's.
4 ply at $333, the other $421.
Hankook rep advises there's only 1 version of 255/55/19.

So, after a couple tanks of mixed driving, I have not had an increase in fuel consumption, in fact I have returned an approximate 1.5 L/100 km better figure. I am not sure if I have subconsciously been driving differently, or maybe I have done a little more out of town driving, but I haven't noticed myself doing either.

Had a double whammy !
A nice tear down to the belts and a self tapper.

I got home about 15 minutes ago, and as I stepped out of the car I heard a hiss going a little longer than the EAS leveling, walk around the back to find this drill bit in the rear left, went in shank first!

Must be Day Of The Hankook!
Hope you have more luck getting a tyre than me,
Mine was $357-00 ( we always pay a bit more in Perth - cause we are special )

The local guy got mine from Sydney, as Hankook here were out of stock.
