Hankook tyres OE on VW Tiguan

Volkswagen has approved the all-season Hankook Ventus S1 noble 2 [Pattern H452] as an original equipment tyre for the 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line. Two Ventus S1 noble 2 sizes – 255/45R19H and 255/40R20V XL – are being fitted to versions of the SUV sold in the USA.

“Hankook Tire is happy to deepen its partnership with Volkswagen by supplying the Tiguan R-Line with our high-performance tyres,” said Hyun Jun Cho, head of Hankook’s OE division. “We are pleased that respected auto makers around the world value the tyres we produce, including the Ventus S1 noble 2.”

Hankook Tire and Volkswagen’s relationship dates back to 2001 when the company started to produce tyres for the Jetta. The partnership continued to providing OE tyres for Volkswagen Polo in 2003, and expanded to other Volkswagen’s popular models such as UP!, Beetle, Golf, Passat and many more.
