Good LRR review in Europe for the new Hankook Optimo K715
 
Any ideas if these are to come to the States? They are made in Hungary...

None of the american passenger car tires made by hankook even remotely resembles these(not surprised, but was hoping) lol, we sure get the best here in the states!
I doubt these will make it over here....

Nope. Take a closer look at all the tread angles of all the ribs on both.

Once again, we get screwed in the US due to the preoccupation with "all season" tires....

I may have to actually start getting tires out of Europa...

Shucks, here in the good ol' USA they won't even set a standard spec for rolling resistance and publish it with the UTQG. We were close to getting that, at least in California, but the lobbyists went to work with a vengeance and we consumers continue on without information.
