I personally stay away from Falkens. Had a friend have a new set blow while driving. Of course not all at the same time. Probably a bad lot of tires. But that is enough for me........

I've never run Flkens but the Hankooks are a great tire, especially when you consider the price. There weren't many reviews out when I purchased mine but I'm willing to give them a great rating. They grip on wet and dry, hot or cold pavement, they are relitively quiet and, although they lack the sidewall rigidity of the RFT's, are hands and feet above the Dunlop Sport DSSTs that came standard on my 550 (and 1/3 the price)

+1. Much better then the factory RFT in ride quality. I am very happy with the Hankook's.

i'm running Falken 452's that came bundled with my Miro 111's. waaaaaaay better than expected considering the price.
i haven't tried the Hankook's since this is my first set of 20' tires but i'm considering them since my local tire dealer does not carry Falken's.
