Hankook tyres in the UAE mostly come from South Korea, Indonesia, Hungary and China. Korean-made stock is often preferred and is easy to identify on the sidewall. Check the DOT code: 0526 means week 5 of 2026. Hankook is a strong match for Korean and Chinese cars, many of which leave the factory on Hankook or Kumho, and for Teslas when you choose the iON range with an XL load rating.
