I had them on my old B5 A4 and liked them very much. Didn't get great mileage out of them. But they handled very nice. I have a 2012 SEL and don't much care for the Pirelli tires on it now. Yes, they are only 50% at 21500 miles. which is good. But in the rain I think they get very slick. Don't have the confidence for spirited driving when wet out. Which the DWS's work well in.
I've been very happy with Discount Tire, they've worked with me in the past on pro-rating tires, etc. These tires have gotten me through 10+ inches of snow this year three or four times plus a night of driving on pure ice on the highway home from work at midnight when it was -13 and salt wasn't working. I'm very positive on these tires!
I HIGHLY suggest Falken Azenis PT722. My local Audi Indy shop is practically getting all of their customers on these after they had it on their performance Audis.... And they loved them. I put them on my Passat.... Best tire I have had on that car.
I have the azenzias on my GLI and they're still on in this winter, and have been really impressed.
Obviously wish falken was still making 512's but overall very happy so far.
I got some Falken winter tires (Northeast Ohio), they worked great for me last year, but the snow we get here in Ohio is laughable by Minnesota standards.
Never felt that way on pavement, but on those metal bridges sure, almost every tire I've ever had does exept the G-forces or the slicks on my m3. I actually really am happy with the Performance and life of the Pirelli Scorpion's. I've got 13,000 miles on mine and at 10/32s on the hot Florida roads thats awesome. Deff not worth switching out.
I love my Falkens. Pretty quiet, no hydroplaning and cheap! Pretty decent grip in wet and dry. Terrible in snow. And They seem to be a very soft rubber that wears a little quick.
had the same experience here. other than that, not an real all-season tire like advertised. pretty ishy in snow, actually, not good at all in snow. other than that, not bad. they have good wear characteristics too
Mine is super annoying between 20-30mph. Running Falken ze-512, for now. They have always been loud but now that they are cupped a bit, it is bad.
