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.
I have a set on one of my Corrados and LOVE them. I've only had them for about 3000 miles so far, but dry grip/handling is amazing, and wet grip really isn't too bad at all. Standing water I would take it a bit slow, but even on a wet road after the rain, they grip/handle pretty well.
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.
