Pirelli all seasons come with them factory and they suck as far as sticking and bust loose easily. I do not know a lot about the Hankook all weather but probably the same thing. Do you know the SRT pages settings and how to use them? And be sure to always override the traction off and turn it back on when changing settings. This ensures you don’t loose control of the cat until you really know her. Be sure to check the engine oil and most dealers have no clue on other maintenance guidelines. Read the manual for sure and any service history would be nice as well. Look inside the rear fender wells for tire rubber. If you find some this car did some major burnouts which then think about the rear end oil and even check the transmission fluid color and smell.
Wow, never thought about that for the burnouts. That’s great attention to detail.

To answer your question on tires I’ve got the same tires it came with when I bought it. IDK if these came with the original purchase but they’re Hankook al weathers
Welcome to the forum. Great place. Congrats on the ride from a fellow '16 owner.

Maybe it's the lighting, but what size are the Hankooks? They look a little narrow in the pic.

Best part of this is at least you know what your first mod should be. No all season tire is going to give you the traction you will need.
What do you recommend for daily driving?

They can try to steal it but the second amendment might ruin their day. She’s safe!

And yeah even I am laughing and another thing and not trying to scare you lol. Some 15-16 model years had a bad supercharger bearing just so you know if you hear a funny noise. It was a bad run of bearings and was fixed, and most never had an issue.

Something to be aware of on Summer Performance tires here on the East Coast. Temps below 40 degrees are not recommended for driving and even they recommend you dont drive. Temps below 32 degrees and for sure do not drive the car. I know you’re in North Carolina but I can’t emphasize enough the Summer Tires suck in cold weather. I know you don’t get much snow but if you did you still for sure crash in slush, icy, snowy weather. If anything change out the Brass Monkey Wheels and buy a Summer performance tire on a set of Triumph Wheels
And leave the originals on for the off season IMO. @Hunter has the Triumph Wheels and they are a supporting vendor to get you a deal. And they look awesome have Hunter send you pics. I don’t think the Brass Monkeys are the correct color combo with the Go Mango imo.
