I have the falkens on my car. They are great, but they wear fairly fast and they get pretty noisy after a while.Pretty inexpensive though. They were they highest rated tire in a consumer reports surevey and they cost way less than some of the others. The noise factor seems to go with the cheaper tires when they get worn.

Some dude told me that there is a knock off brand that uses the same mold as the falken but costs a little less. I can't rememeber what it was called though.
