New shoes on all four corners

My brother is recommending Hankook RS2's for my 7 & 9 x 16 fuchs. Any others out there with some first hand experience with these tires? Pro's / Con's?
Thanks in advance and Happy 4th to all.

I have no experience with these specific tires but I did have a pari of Hancook's on a BMW about 6 years ago that had them when I bought it used. After 6 months I put on something else, as theyhad horrible road noise and seemed to find grooves in the freeway that would make them track funny. But I cannot remember the model of the Hancook's and it was several years ago so I am not sure how valuable my opinion is on this.

I put 225/50, 205/55 hankook rs2s on my 6/7 fuchs just a month ago...i actually went down in wheel size from 7/8 cup wheels with dunlap 5000s, and my car does seem to ride better, quiter, and sticks in the curvies better....so i am happy with my choice to go with the hankooks....only thing i might mention is the sidewalls don't seem as stiff as the previous tires....
