Hankook Winter i*Pike LT RW09
Built for pickups and commercial vans, the Hankook Winter i*Pike LT RW09 gives you confident control when temperatures drop. A studdable tread, directional pattern, and high-density siping bite into snow and ice, and the reinforced construction supports towing and hauling in rough winter conditions. Wide channels move slush out of the footprint, and the cold-weather compound stays flexible in deep cold. Choose the RW09 for dependable traction, stable braking under load, and durable service through the winter season.
Features and Construction
The Winter i*Pike LT RW09 pairs a cold-weather rubber blend with a directional tread to maximize grip in low temperatures. Dense, multi-angle siping boosts traction and braking on snow and ice. Open shoulders and wide grooves clear slush and water from the contact patch to help prevent hydroplaning. A reinforced casing and robust sidewalls support heavy loads and towing, and the studdable design allows optional metal studs for added ice grip where legal.
Winter Performance on Snow and Ice
On packed snow, the RW09's directional pattern and dense siping create multiple biting edges for sure-footed acceleration and confident braking. In slush and light standing water, broad channels clear the footprint to maintain steering feel. On glare ice, you can add studs where laws permit for an extra layer of traction that improves start-stop control and stability. The sturdy construction resists squirm under load, so braking and cornering stay predictable whether the bed is empty or fully loaded.
Sizes, Load Ratings, and Fitment
The Winter i*Pike LT RW09 comes in LT-metric sizes for light trucks and commercial vans across common 15-18 inch wheel diameters. Many sizes are offered in higher load ranges, such as D or E, to support hauling and towing. Always match the size, load index, and speed rating on your door-jamb label, and consider your axle setup, single or dual rear wheel. If you carry heavy loads often, choose the appropriate load range and set cold inflation pressures to maintain carrying capacity.
Durability and Tread Life
Built for work duty, the RW09 uses a sturdy casing to handle winter roads, frequent stops, and loaded operation. A cut and chip resistant compound helps protect against rough surfaces, and a stable tread block layout promotes even wear. For best results, rotate regularly, maintain proper cold inflation pressures, and correct alignment if irregular wear appears. As with most dedicated winter tires, mileage depends on loads, climate, and driving style, so use them seasonally and store them properly when temperatures rise.
Price and Buying Options
Get the right RW09 by selecting the exact LT size, load range, and speed rating listed on your vehicle placard. Pricing varies by size and specification. Add professional installation for accurate mounting, balancing, and optional studding where legal. Seasonal demand can affect availability, so order early to have your set ready before the first snowfall, and contact us for fleet quotes and scheduling.
Hankook RW09 vs. Other Winter Truck Tires
Comparing winter truck tires? The Hankook RW09 emphasizes studdable versatility, stable handling under load, and dependable cold-weather grip. Studless options like Bridgestone Blizzak LT and Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT3 lean toward maximum compound-based ice traction and lower noise, while other studdable LT tires may prioritize extreme ice grip at the cost of added road noise when studded. Choose the RW09 if you want the flexibility to run it studless most of the season and add studs for severe ice where regulations allow.
Studding and Installation Tips
The RW09 includes pre-molded stud pin holes for optional metal studs. If you plan to stud, have a professional install studs in all four tires before the first use of the season. Observe local laws on studded tires and seasonal dates, then drive moderately at first to help seat the studs. Once a tire has been used as a studless tire, studs generally should not be added later, and rotations should keep studded tires on the same sides to maintain even wear and consistent traction.

Do you have a question about Winter i*Pike LT RW09 235/65R16C E 121/119R?
Yes. The RW09 is a studdable winter tire with pre-molded stud locations. Studs can boost ice traction in regions with frequent freeze-thaw cycles or steep, icy routes. Many drivers run it without studs thanks to the cold-weather compound and dense siping. Check local regulations, have studs installed professionally before use, and expect more road noise when studded.
The RW09 is built for light trucks and commercial vans that require LT-metric winter tires. Match your original size, load index, and speed rating from the door-jamb placard to ensure proper fit and capacity. Pay close attention to load range, such as D or E, for towing and payload needs, and verify compatibility with single or dual rear wheel setups. When in doubt, consult your owner's manual or a tire professional to confirm the right specification for your vehicle and use.
As a dedicated winter tire, the RW09 uses a cold-weather compound, a directional tread, and dense siping to deliver stronger traction and shorter stops in snow and freezing conditions than typical all-season tires. In deep snow, its pattern packs and releases snow for grip. On ice, you can run it studless or add studs for extra bite where legal. All-season designs focus on year-round versatility and usually cannot match a winter tire's cold-weather control.
Most dedicated winter tires, especially heavy-duty LT models, do not include a treadwear mileage warranty because usage varies widely by climate, loads, and driving style. The RW09 is engineered for durability with a reinforced casing and a compound tuned for cold weather. For best life, use it seasonally, store it correctly when temperatures rise, rotate on schedule, and maintain proper cold inflation pressures. Review the manufacturer's limited warranty for materials and workmanship coverage.
