When I get new tires, wear and noise will be one of the deciding factors, after price. This car handles far better than anything else I drove in the past, and if anything I drive more pedestrian now in it.
So unless the Hankooks aren't made with unicorn hair or something even more expensive, I may try them. I am please how quiet the Crossfire is in general with the windows up and radio off. When I first test drove one with 29,000 miles I was confused when I heard the spoiler go up.
