Tires - preferences?

Does anyone have either of these brands of tires and what's your opinion of them, or your preference.

The reason for going with these two specific brands is size selection. I'm looking for 255/50/17 and 275/50/17.

2) FALKEN Ziex S/TZ-01 (right photo)

My dad had a set of the Falkens in 285/60/18. They rode real well and didn't make alot of noise. PM see ten. He has the same size tires on his 72 C10. I can't remember what brand he has.
