Falken Ziex 512's???
I found a decent buy on a set of 15" Slipstreams with 205/50 Falken 512's. I've never had Falken's but I've heard nothing but good things about them. This is just for my daily driver so I don't need the Azeniz or anything too performance oriented. I guess the 512's are going to be taking place of the 502's. I was wondering if anyone is running with these and what they thought of them?

I'm running them right now. I just got a brand new set recently. I'm very happy with them. They're a huge improvement over stock (of course). They stick well in the corners and are fairly quiet on the highway. I was between the Yokohama A520 and the Falken. I had heard that the Yoke was loud at high speeds, which turned out to be one of my deciding factors in making my purchase. I run 16's though so you may notice a little more sidewall flex in a 15".

I'm running them also. I have the 205-50-15. They are great for daily driving. The seem to work well in the rain. The only downside to them is the sidewalls are a little weak. Ex. when taking a fast corner they sidewalls will flex a bit. I normally don't drive like that but it may be an issue for some ppl. Other then that I only got them for $56 shipped to my door so they are competitive. They have a 360 tread rating so you'll get good tread wear out of them. Good luck.
