I know it's not exactly on the topic of the RT615, but what about the Hankook rs-3?

I've got them on the merc right now and loving them.
From my knowledge, they should be around the same price as the rt615...

In the wet though.... they're a shocker.
I washed the car on my steep driveway.. the tried to drive it up, and it just stood there spinning the tyres.... :S
I'm sure it'll be the same with the rt615 though...

I will be getting a pair of Falken 615's installed on my car tomorrow. I have a pair of 265's and 275's. Thinking about going for the 265's first. Will post first impressions soon.

Falken 615K is an awesome tire. Lots of grip, ride quite comfortable as well.

This is my track stup spec.
Advan TC III 18x9.5 / 18x10.5
Falken RT615K 275-35-18/315-30-18

It is definitely worth the money yet they do wear pretty fast imo.
