Hankook all the way, for over 3 years now. On SL and ML. Quiet, plush ride. Beat the Continentals that they replaced. I can finally hear my engine, instead of tire noise

Old thread. Oh well. I guess the original bridgestones were worn out. I put on Hankook today. Ride is great and they do seem nice and quiet and they are great price.

Whoever said Cooper or General are cheap is clueless. They are close in price to the Continentals. I had to replace the DWS with the new General GMax and what a great tire. The Gmax is an ultra high Performance all season that tracks straight and performs well.
