I have some Bridgestone Traction TA's on my 1999 LS I didn't like them they sucked in wet weather and were really stiff and hard sidewalls. I got some Falken Ziex 512's and WOW WHAT A DIFFERENCE! It is night and day, my braking feels better and more secure too! I now have very nice traction and just saying if your looking for tires and dont wanna pay too much get these tires they are really nice. There tread life is about 30,000 and I think there really nice. Just some feedback for ya..

 

How much were they? 50 some a piece?

 

I have those also and so far no complaints. Many people complain about it being a loud.... I like them and would buy another set especially for the price.

 

I'm on my second set of these now, they definately wear down quickly though. Then again it's all about how you drive -- I've put about 14,000 miles on them and they're probably right around 30% tread left.

As for them being loud, I don't think so at all.

 

I'll keep those in mind dude. I'm replacing wheels and tires here in the next month. Right now running expensive toyo proxes so hopfully these dont leave a lot to be desired =P

wear down quickly?

i thought it was sppose to last long...

well..i have never tried the ziex...but ive been riding on azenis..

azenis = from me

 

Yeah your supposed to rotate every 7k miles and keep properly inflated. If you drive on highway you will get 30k+ miles if you drive on city alot of stop and go maybe 20-25k

I got em from Edgeracing.com for like 55 bucks each


I also LOVE the curb guard edge..

 

these tires are great... i've bought 205/60 for 15 inch steelies on my mom's accord and they're great! you can find good deals all over

 

i made a 3k cross country trek on falkens

 

Sounds like a pretty decent set of tires, and the price is nice too. I'll keep these in mind when I go looking for myself a new set here in the near future.

 

On 205/50/15s, it seems that the sidewalls of these tires tend to give quite a bit. I've tried a bunch of different pressures, and it hasn't made any difference. The thing that annoys me the most is the lack of crisp turning. What i mean is that if you're driving straight, and start to wobble your steering wheel, the car will slightly oscillate left and right, instead of cutting left and right.

This was coming from Kumho ASXs, ES100s, and some Federal tires.

 

I have them too. I love them, they do seem to wear down a little quick, but I drive my car pretty hard. They feel great, and the price was amazing, I think my brother paid like 200 something shipped for 15's.

 

falken tires are a great price and great qaulity tire, im rocking the rt-615's on my FN10r-c wheels

 

yea, tires looks nice, but wears down quick

 

&lt;--------- rt-615's

 

yea.. these tires are cheap in price... but... i really feel you get what you pay for.. cheap tires. personally, i think these tires somewhat grip, but has too soft of sidewalls. if the sidewalls were stiffer, it'd be better. i liked the kumho escta supra 712, and the yoko avs es100's. i got the kumho's for 300(with tax) installed all 4 corners. the yokos... i got them for 160(with taxes) installed for 2. the 512's that i have currently, i have 32k on them and not much left.

 

totally agree had mine for about 1 year now and been good to me

If you think these tires have grip you should try rt215 or rt615 azenis.

 

i LOVE my azenis wish the rt215s were still avail they cant be beat for the price

 

I am gonna put Azenis on my summer wheels ( Buddy Clubs)

 

I have 195/60/14 Ziex 512's on my del Sol (coming from Goodyear Wingfoot's) and they're awesome. I've had them on the car since August and they could still pass for brand new (I don't drive the **** out of it but I do "enjoy" it, and I drive a lot of miles). I live on gravel roads which are historically rough on my tires, too.

They were loud when I first got them but now they're nice and smooth, and even at 90+ MPH you don't feel like you're going fast at all. Nothing but Falken love here now, when the Teg needs new rubber it'll either be Ziex's, or if I can afford it at the time, some Azenis.

 

Yeah there really nice tires, I was cornering fast and didnt feel too much sidewall flex like some say
