I've heard of them but have no experience with them. What are you looking to spend per tire and what do you want to get out of the tires?

I think I may end up trying out the Falken Azenis RT-615's.

I havent heard very good things about Falken tires as a whole as far as thread wear is concerned.

If you end up getting some tell us how you like them and I might try those next time if they are any good...
