Why I made a film for Hankook Tyres !

[@peteanoz9425]

Great to see a video on the 'Correct Way' Pete, to actually do wheel alignment, because I've been totally shocked to see how some garages do it and then it ends in a full blown argument because I say they are doing it wrong...

[@johns14a]

I think you are right to be protective of your subscribers and wary of the promotional content you put on your channel as many other car channels are not very subtle about the way they do things and can put people's backs up. That said, I thought this video was very good. The wife was watching the Hankook part of the video as well and said that she finally properly understood what the markings were all about. You do have a talent for explaining things and every right to maximise your revenue from this channel. This video shows you're thinking along the right lines and I wish you all the very best for future collaborations.

John thanks for this. Made my day 👍

Great video. I use to work in the tyre industry here in New Zealand. The industry use to do checks from time to time on tyres, wear and age. They found that 40% of all cars on the road had a tyre issue, weather alignment or wear or under inflation. Scary!

I recently bought a Jetta GLI (I think you don´t get it in Europe, but it's just like a Golf GTI with a boot). It came with Hankooks and I've driven it for some 2000 miles so far and they have been great. Really good blend of comfort and performance for day to day driving.

[@markwright3161]

If you change tyres in pairs, keep the same brand and tier of tyre across all axles. If you're going to change brand or go for a cheaper tyre in a lineup, change all tyres at once. I'd say premium All-season tyres are good enough for the average conditions for most of the UK for those who may not have the resources for 2 sets of tyres (summer and winter) for their car. A lot of people in the UK could probably manage through winter with summer tyres, they just need to take it a lot easier when it's below 7 degrees Celsius and avoid driving when it's 'significantly' (for the UK) below freezing and/or when snow is laying, You might as well be driving on plastic tubes at that point. The channel 'Tyre Reviews' has a video where they use a M2 mixing pairs of premium and budget pairs of tyres across axles. Premium front, budget rear resulted in the car swapping ends in a fraction of a second on damp tarmac, even with all your assists active without trying to accelerate through the corner.

[@cinematographytrev]

My thoughts are that you are very right to protect us as your subscribers, you’ve worked extremely hard bringing us your excellent content and it’s your channel not a channel that flaunts videos to advertise anything within the motoring world. Your content is always very concise and informative so the video you did for Hankook tyres sits completely well within your channel. Well done and it was a very informative watch, I was only teaching my young boys (your super peddler’s) about their bike tyres, so they enjoyed the watch about car tyres and this also taught them the importance of road safety. One thing I would find good to watch is if you were given the opportunity to perhaps provide us with an insight into engine oils; you look out their and with so many different types and specifications of engine oil it’s perhaps for some a bit of a mind field. Also try and bring footage which I know would interest myself is watching an engine work where you can the oil working. I think this would be something fascinating to watch as you see your engine but never actually what the oil is doing. Just an idea and a thought that’s all. Keep up the excellent content and a channel that’s always a first watch when we log into You Tube. Oh and our second choice is Lego, if you get any car kits, throw these our way please lol .

[@speedoman1234]

Just stumbled upon your channel, great content 👍. Speaking as a mechanic I couldn't stress enough the difference between different wheel alignment systems and the level of tenacity of the person adjusting. Best to cough up the £70ish at a facility with computerised wheel alignment. Not by some idiots who insist using string is a precise method of wheel alignment! 🙄

Great you are enjoying the channel Louis. If string alignment is done properly it can be very effective. When I raced last year, several of the teams in the paddock swore by a string set up. The challenge is you really need to know what you are doing 👍

I had continentals switched to hankook when I got stuck in a parking lot on a snowy night, with the continentals had to push the car down the road while it was plowing the snow and no traction had a baby in the car as well. Got hankooks next day and then a blizzard hit a month later I drove 40 miles through the blizzard never once losing traction or getting stuck with people relying on me to get them home safely. I am now going to buy another set but the PT I have the ST. So you cannot go wrong with the kinergy st. Also I get price match from a local dealer then I get a discount from hankook rebate, why pay 800 or 1000 when you can pay less and get the same performance.

[@pay9011]

I'm leaning towards the PT. Are you saying you prefer the PT over the ST? My used Sportage came with Optimos but need replacing as the interior noise is loud and even small bumps are very noticeable. Tread depth is only 4/32 so I'm sure that's a factor.

I price matched mine so i got 30 off from that and a rebate from the tire place for 50 and another 50 from hankook most get great tires for 800 i got mine for far less and they are scored by the governemnt A AA for temperater and wear is like over 800. most tires on that list even the best are rated 300.

Very informative video, Pete. One question, why is tyre rotation not really a thing in the UK? Whenever my cars in America go in for an oil change/service (every 8000-9000 miles) the delaership rotates the tyres. But tyre rotation has never been offered to me in the UK. Why is that? I recently bought a Mini JCW to use when I'm in the UK (about 4 or 5 months per year) and fully intend to get the tyres rotated annually so they wear evenly and change them all at the same time when they wear out.

[@PetrolPed]

You just have to be careful with tyre rotation depending on the geometry setup of the car 👍

Re the video, one aspect you didn’t cover was the age of tyres and reading the date code because these days they don’t last so long if you buy cheap budget products but all tyres should go at six years even if only part worn.

Allow me to also mention tire date codes, partly for people buying second-hand vehicles. The tire date code is in a little lozenge shaped stamp on the sidewall. It currently (post Y2K) shows 4 digits, the first two are the week up to 52 and the second are the year. So 0118 means the tire was made in the first week of 2018 . I would hope that on-one is running tires older than Y2K! I had an eight year old tire on my latest motor and changed it right away. The other on that axle was nearly new. And yes, I got the same brand and tread pattern as the other one. For more info on this subject, www.atseuromaster.co.uk/consumer/category-header/tyre-advice/tyre-safety

Great video, well presented. There are a lot of car channels out there that talk a lot obout the 'what' - but very very few talk about the how and the why. For example you mentioned 93Y - What: is 93 - load rating How: does Hankook alter the design of the tyre to achieve higher load ratings Why: is this (becomming more) important: growth in (heavy) SUV's, growth in EV's that are inherently heavier due to the batteries etc You could put your racing knowledge to use by moving beyond the 'it's a geat handling car' and get the car up on a ramp, and show how it's a great handling car. Appretiate that attention span is an issue - but I think there is a gap in the market for depth (pun intended)!!

Good evening pal. I dare bet ya sat having a holiday beer, have one for us. 👍👍👍

[@PetrolPed]

I am indeed...at the same time as editing Friday’s vid 😜

[@ginggur17]

Petrol Ped , mate you have got to have a holiday at some point. Us true friends really don’t mind ya know lol. 👍👍👍

[@Richz2]

I guess it makes content, but when you receive a press car you are not going to criticise it, so it not really an impartial review.

[@PetrolPed]

I disagree. Look back on my reviews of press cars and I am more than happy to talk about the negative stuff. I recently criticised the Porsche 992 C2S for being too expensive. That was my first car from Porsche UK but that didn’t stop me. Press teams want your honest opinion and never tell you what you can or can’t say. I always try to be impartial 👍

I can't see anything wrong with you branching out and doing what you're doing Pete. You've got to earn a living, so crack on buddy.

[@f1fanatic80]

This video told us nothing about hankook man, just a video on how to maintain tyres.... title was misleading.

[@damindra]

Hiya fella!! How comfy is the Audi TT RS???

[@PetrolPed]

Extremely. Done some big miles so far. This is the TTS but from a comfort point of view is exactly the same 👍

[@cellphonelightsaber]

Highly relevant company, highly relevant information, high quality product. Right now, you are monetizing me 10x better than Google is with TV apps (I don't even watch TV) and hastily-assembled mobile games that can hardly be called time-wasters. BONUS: Hankooks hold up my truck right now!

[@PetrolPed]

LOL...not thought of it that way !

Evening 👋

[@SNAFUferret]

I fail to see the need to deliver information about tyres while driving on a public road. You are constantly looking away from the road to the camera.

[@garage2umobilemechanicandt717]

Sorry Pete,I've watched so many of your video's and they have all been great, but when you say you protect your channel and then sound like a salesman which you have done well to always avoid even when using a 'certain' mini preparation company you done it very well. In this video you really do sound like a salesman, whilst credit given have made some very good and valid points, but please don't pretend, yet why you have done what you've done but this last video is so scripted it's painful, shame loved watching previously.

[@PetrolPed]

The difference between this and my Mini modification videos is that Hankook paid me so I am duty and legally bound to tell you. The video was aimed at being an information film or a sales pitch.

[@1Three8Fiver]

Check out VINwiki for a good idea of how to ensure you have relatable sponsors although possibly ignore the Vincero Watches akin to to Carguy UK's sentiments and adapt as appropriate for yourself, your audience and (y)our location.

Hi Mate

[@PetrolPed]

Hi 👋

[@sherabnamdhak6485]

Left face book as it was getting just ridiculous sorry.

[@whollymindless]

Retire? We just hope you might be able to feed yourself once a week on KZbin money.

[@PetrolPed]

LOL...that’s why I still have a ‘proper’ job 😂

[@whollymindless]

At least you might have a decent set of tires with the sponsorship!

[@madhatter7822]

That had nothing to do with hankook apart from the odd logo shot, total click bate 🤨🤨🤨🤨

[@PetrolPed]

Two things. Not sure you actually watched the video and I am definitely sure you haven’t got a clue what ‘click bait’ actually means 🤔

[@patrickfogarty5809]

You are embarrassing yourself!!!

[@patrickfogarty5809]

Oh I cringe!!!!! You did sell out and only.after 2 months or so. I couldn't watch the end because of your commercial. You can't believe what they are asking you to promote via your masked attempt. They are shit tyres no matter what you say TOU KNOW IT!!!!!!!!!!
