Well, I have a set of 512's but they are not stretched. However, they are the best tire I have owned to date for the price.
I've driven in quite heavy rain with them, and was quite impressed by their performance.
Just thought i would share this...this car has been built to make damn near zero lag and still 400whp, custom control arms and custom coil overs.... i can vouch for its good times
I'm running 255/40-17 RT615s on 17x8 ET35. This is on a "regular" MK4, not an R32. It should not be an issue, the additional grip provided over 225/235 is noticeable.
225/40/18 falken ze512's on an 18x8.5" wheel - and those are correctly sized for the mk4 - rolled shoulder extreme...
Falkens are a good tire choice for the price.
I just put these on as summer tires and auto-x tires and the traction after they warm up a little bit is awesome. I used to have trouble even with the F1s spinning in second sometimes. With these I get pretty zero under hard acceleration.
I run my 615r for my daily and on auto cross. One HELL of a tire. The wet grip is amazing. The dry grip is even better. I have yet to break them loose in an autox event. There are gobbs and gobbs of grip. Plus the tread is meaty from the get go.
They are \"ok\" in the rain. They like to skate around a bit, but nothing major. Definitely manageable in non-downpouring conditions.
yeah they can be scary in heavy downpours. i have to drive on the slow lane most of the time, because past 55-60, i'm hydroplaning. it's actually exciting in my opinion, but not safe at all.
