Has anyone tried any of the tires from Hancook or Falken?

Yes, I recently (2 months a go) purchased a set of Falken ZE512s. Once I got
them balanced properly and exchanged two out of round tires, I find them to
be quiet and smooth running with good road grip though they are harder than
than the OE tires that came with my 2000 Outback.

I put incredibly inexpensive Hankook Radial H714 on my 95 L Wagon after severe
having alignment and noise issues (don't remember the other brand and don't want
to, either).
It felt like a whole new car - best investment so far - sold the car though, so
I can't tell you how they hold up.

I have falken azenis sports on my svx. They are by far the best bang for
the buck for a low cost ultra high performance tire. Alot of wrx drivers
prefer these for autocross use. I have driven on them daily for over a
year now and they are bald at this point (~30k miles) and still stick to
dry roads like glue. They wore very evenly. I will replace these with
another set.

Had Azenis Sports on my WRX last year, switched to Toyo Proxe 4's this year
and am really surprised at how well they perform.  The proxes, imho, are the
better of the two tires....I have no experience w/ Hancook

Falken Ziex 512 on WRX - day and night comparing with OEM Potenzas: smooth
ride, better grip and excellent wet braking. Best bang for a buck!
