Those are the cheap ones. There are more expensive, better wearing Hankook (means “Korea” as in South Korea) tire models, though. IIRC, the ROK holds its companies to a certain level of quality control before allowing exports (see the name). Hankook’s getting pretty heavily into racing, too (even drift racing now).

Like I said in another comment, though, I use Goodyears when driving more. Well...hopefully, the MT/Rs are American. Quite a few tires sold by Goodyear (at least under other names) aren’t and come from some of those terrible places.
