brand new falken 912s: 2- 205/40, 2- 215/45..... for only 300 :thumbup:
I've had 512s on three of my cars. Great mileage out of them and they do great in wet and dry...
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
Deff go with the falken ziex i have them on my 14" american racing rims there amazing they hug the road exspecially with all new suspension
I think it is a great idea for the right situation. I take my 15' aluminum boat out 3-4 times a year and the lake is just 1 mile away, but there are always cops around the lake and they will pounce on you if your lights are not working, so it is a perfect solution for me.
Saw a Subaru and two Jeep Liberties in ditches today. My lowered, traction control-less and ABS-less Mk.III on studded Hankooks did just fine.
I will say that the Hankook iPike W409 is a great tire. They're very similar to the old Nokian RSi tire, which is a good thing. I'm on my third set of them, studded this time. They'll go through anything.
I used these tires / steel wheels on my 2008 Jetta for one winter. If you've never used winter tires you need to try it. All wheel drive is nice to get moving but they can't help you turn or stop. Winter tires do everything better - more grip for turning, stopping, and starting. The winter rubber compound and tread gives much better grip in all cold weather conditions - dry, wet, sleet, slush, or snow.
I bought some Falken Ziex ZE-912s for my Magny Cours because I was hoping to sell my car and I needed something inexpensive. Turns out, they're a pretty good tire. The sidewall is too soft on them for something that claims high performance, but they do grip really well. The suck in the snow however, so I wouldn't depend on them for that (despite their all-season claim).
Falken ZIEX 912 is the most over hyped tire I've ever had the misfortune of having mounted to my vehicle. Useless in the rain, greasy in the cold and noisy as hell as they begin to wear.
