Falken Tires

Was running Avid W4s Yokohama’s on 14" Snowflakes and nothing bad to say till 20% tread, then a loose feeling... rain was good. I'm now running 195/50/15 Falken ZE912 high performance all season and also come in 14, with the stiff coils all around I have little to no push in corners and better off on the wider stance zero off-set rims. Now the main reason is they are a great wet tire and still trying to make the front push... my buddy ran them on his BMW and didn't like the oversteer feeling of the tire folding?!!? but I'm firm believer curb weight has heaps to do with it.... my 3 cents in rainy vancouver

Pros: great wet tire, no push in corners
Cons: loose feeling at low tread

SUMITOMO Tires
novws
Rating 4.0
  • Grip:
  • Noise:
  • Ride comfort:

I had Falken 512s on a Miata and I hated them. Very noisy at and before the limit. For Foxes, I've always gone with 185/60/14s. Not any real reason. It was the stock size for the Rabbit GTI and it doesn't throw the speedo off too much, which doesn't really matter on a Fox. The profile also looks natural; the sidewall isn't too short or too tall. And the 185 width isn't too wide; not a bad thing on a car that has no power steering. But you should be fine with any similar size. On my current Fox, I have these Sumitomo HTR A/S P01s. I like them a lot. They're a great all around tire. Very quiet, wonderful in the rain, rides nicely and handle well. I'd like a little more dry grip, but, really for a street tire these are great. I had these BF Goodriches on the Fox I sold last summer. They were noisier than the Sumitomos and the steering feel felt a touch heavier, but they were also a nice all around tire and perhaps a bit grippier than the Sumitomos or at least they gave that impression.

Pros: very quiet, wonderful in rain
Cons: less dry grip

  • Engine noise:

When I did my oil change about 800-900 miles ago I used Mobil 1 0w-40 and so far I'm loving it more than which was last in there which was 5w-40 used at a VW dealer them selves.

Pros: loving it

LIQUI MOLY Engine oil
thygreyt
Rating 5.0
  • Engine noise:

i can only speak from experience and based on my oil analysis results... Liqui moly is an amazing oil. The motor is fairly quiet, the fuel economy is good, the performance is on point and Friction inside the motor (engine wear) is at a \"very very minimum\" or so the reports say... For all this, i cant help but recommend Liqui Moly!

Pros: motor fairly quiet, good fuel economy
Cons: none
