Audi A8, BMW 750 and Porsche Cayenne basically use horse brand. The excellent drainage performance of horse brand enables vehicles to maintain high braking performance and stability on wet roads.

8 th place: Hankook Tire

Hankook Tire was founded in 194 1, which is the first tire manufacturer in Korea.

However, due to the hard tread and insufficient toughness, it is easy to bulge or even puncture when the mileage is too long, but the new Hankook tire will never happen.
