Hankook K117B RUNFLAT

K117B RUNFLAT
The Hankook Ventus S1 evo2 K117B is a premium ultra-high performance summer runflat tyre built for drivers of BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and other prestige vehicles that rely on runflat technology in place of a spare tyre. Combining Hankook’s Runflat System (HRS) with a high-grip silica compound, racing-derived profile technology, and a refined noise and comfort focus, the K117B delivers the confident dry and wet performance of a true UHP tyre — with the added security of being able to continue driving safely after a puncture. For drivers who expect their tyres to do everything without compromise, the Ventus S1 evo2 K117B delivers exactly that.

Features and Benefits

  • Hankook Runflat System (HRS) with SMH tri-layer sidewall technology: Hankook’s unique three-partitioned reinforced sidewall construction uses three distinct rubber layers, each performing a separate function — shock absorption to maintain ride comfort, maintenance continuity to support the vehicle’s weight after pressure loss, and heat resistance to prevent sidewall breakdown during extended runflat driving
  • Continued mobility after puncture: Allows safe continued driving after a complete loss of tyre pressure, providing the critical peace of mind that comes with vehicles fitted without a spare tyre — without the need for an immediate roadside tyre change
  • High-grip silica compound: Optimises the tyre’s rubber formulation for improved wet and dry traction simultaneously, while also reducing rolling resistance for better fuel efficiency — a premium compound that doesn’t trade one benefit against another
  • Optimised triple Tread Radius (TR) system based on racing profile technology: A sophisticated three-radius tread profile derived from motorsport technology maintains a stable, consistent contact footprint under both vertical and lateral loads at high speeds — delivering the best possible performance across all driving conditions
  • Equilibrium rayon carcass line: Maintains the tyre’s structural integrity and shape under load, improving cornering stability and high-speed performance by keeping the contact patch evenly distributed regardless of the forces applied
  • Wide steel belt layer: Optimises tread stiffness and road contact for improved handling, steering response, and braking performance across both wet and dry surfaces
  • High stiffness bead filler: Increases sidewall rigidity to enhance steering response and cornering precision — providing the direct, communicative handling feedback that UHP and prestige car drivers expect
  • Strong single strand bead wire: Improves tyre uniformity and fitting ease, contributing to a smoother, more balanced ride from the moment the tyre is mounted
  • Aqua driving control tread pattern: Channels water rapidly away from the contact patch through an optimised groove layout, reducing aquaplaning risk and maintaining strong wet grip and braking performance in heavy rain

In order for us to give you an accurate quote it is handy to have your tyre size to hand. The easiest way to find this is to look on the sidewall of your existing tyre, where you will see a combination of numbers and letters.

Width: (this is the first set of numbers) and represents the width of the tyre sidewall in Millimetres.

Profile: This is the height of the sidewall as a percentage of the width of the tyre

Rim: This is the diameter of the inner rim in inches

When looking for your tyre size note down the size of both the front and rear tyres as many cars have been developed with two different sizes.
