Tires Falken or FEDERAL
I have a nice set of Falken Zeix 512 on my Fox and they grip nicely in all seasons, plus pretty cheap. I give thumbs up to the Falkens
Had numerous sets of 452s and 512s... highly recommended for a lower priced tire.
x2 for Falkens, i've had a set of 512's and 912's, great tire, even better price
I learned my lesson with the 165/45 15 federals... and will tell anyone here that can still find these to stack up while they are cheap/can find them.
Your tires are one of the main factors contributing to the wheelspin. If its a big enough issue, get a dedicated summer tire like the Dunlop Star Spec or Falken Azenis 615. I have had both of those tires on high powered FWD cars and they make a big difference.
I really like Falken, far better bang for the buck than BFG, or Pirelli IMHO. Had Ziex on my wrx, and on a few cars since. Great tires.
I have falkens on my acura mdx on 20s. they're a summer high performance tire. make my SUV handle like a porsche. LOVE THEM.
Have Falkens on my '03 Civic Si. No problems in the wet and I'm in South Florida. Replaced original Michelins with them with no regrets.They're a pretty good tire in my opinion.
I owned its predecessor, the 512. It got me to work and back in the snow, not well, but whatever, it's an A/S tire. They wore well. In fact two of them are still okay, but I screwed up the fronts with a bad alignment.
The Falkens suck I would never put them on my car, but they are WAY better tires than Ling Long... Ling Long, Nexen, Nankang = never ever EVER. I wouldn't trust these tire brands on my bicycle, let alone the machine holding my butt inches above the ground going 90 on the freeway.
