Hankook Gets Exclusive Winter Tire Deal in Canada

Hankook Tire Canada Corp. is supplying Canadian Tire with an exclusive Hankook-brand "all-weather" tire.

The Hankook Optimo 4S, which carries the mountain/snowflake symbol that the Rubber Association of Canada and its U.S. counterpart, the RMA, assigns to approved winter tires, will be available only at Canadian Tire locations across Canada.

"We are proud to partner with Canadian Tire to bring this revolutionary tire to the Canadian market," said Joseph Park, marketing communications manager at Hankook Tire Canada. "Hankook is dedicated to providing the highest quality product with the latest innovations, and Optimo 4S is a testament to our dedication."

Park said the Optimo 4S is engineered to provide optimum performance in all four seasons. The tire has an asymmetric tread pattern design and hybrid compound technology for handling, braking and traction on dry, wet and snow-covered road conditions.
