This a common misconception, if I understand your post correctly. Any new tyre will handle better initially, over the worn out ones taken off.Chris maybe i didn't make myself clear
The Hankooks may be a better tyre, I don't know i've never had them fitted, but never compare the new tyre over the old. To get a good and fair comparison the entire life of both make should be taken into account. As the old ones WILL handle poorly as they wear.
Typical situation for an omega would be worn shoulders and almost untouched centre on the front. Rear will be the opposite with worn out centre and comparatively unworn shoulders. No car will handle well with tyres worn so.
Some improvement "may" be found by rotating rear tyres to the front. Depending if you want to only buy two at a time or a set. Although in this case it's a bit late for that by the sound of it.
