Anyone have update on Hankook

I have been reviewing past posts of members about tires. As I posted on a recent thread I have only had my Toyo tires for 20,000 miles and already need new ones. I was looking at Hankook ATM RF10. I saw where some members posted last year that they had bought them. Anyone have any updates on how they are wearing/performing?

I have 6,000 on mine and if they continue to perform like they are and they give me some decent life, I will continue buying them. I am getting them rebalanced and rotated later today. They don't seem to show much wear at all right now. They have been quiet on the highway and great in the snow and limited mud so far.

One of the best tires ive put on these trucks and you cant beat the price even though they have gone up $25ea since i bought mine. So far i have about 4k and they are handling verry well in all weather and they still look new.

Are they really made in China? That may be deal breaker for me if they are?

Not China, Korea, from their website,
"...and aggressive marketing strategies to strengthen our standing as Korea’s best tire maker."
