On  the Hankook-Europe site they're listed under light
truck.  Description thus:

After learning the hard way about passenger-car tires, and
experiencing the better handling and greatly reduced sway from
shifting to Michelin MX tires (and then successively MXL and Agilis
80 as the others became obsolete) -- the Hankook RA08 behave just
fine in ordinary use, and are a good deal better than the Michelins
in snow.  I don't carry 300# of sand in the back any more, because
the RA08 are better without it than the Michelins were with.
