WHEN Kyle Cheney was drafted from the North Ballarat Rebels, his dad Michael got ready for some long drives between his home town of Warracknabeal and Kyle’s new home, the Melbourne Football Club.
 
And that’s where Melbourne’s major sponsor, Hankook Tyres, stepped in.
 
Michael gained a set of the latest fuel saving Hankook enfren silica tyres fitted to his car.
 
As the latest addition to the Hankook range of fuel saving silica tyres, these helped Michael minimise his fuel bills as well as his car’s impact on the environment each time he drove to watch Kyle play.
 
“The first thing I noticed as soon as I drove the car was how quiet the enfren tyres were. The car was a much better car to drive after having them fitted,” Michael said.
 
Hankook’s new enfren tyres reduce harmful carbon dioxide gas emissions by 4.1 grams every kilometre they cover, compared to conventional tyres.
 
On the average drive from Warracknabeal to the MCG and back, Michael was able to save nearly three kg of greenhouse gas, enough to fill sixty black balloons.
 
Hankook enfren tyres achieve these impressive results through advanced engineering and construction combined with the use of a unique silica compound. This reduces the rolling resistance of vehicles by up to 21%, resulting in better fuel efficiency and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
