So I got my hands on a set of Falken RT 615 for quite cheaply priced. Brand new. From a dealer i work with.

I know tires really depend on what kind of driving is planned.

But im curious if anyone has used, or knows anyone whos used these tires. Just seeing what everyones opinion is on them. Tread life? Wear? The usual stuff.

Any info would be great.

 

I have a set of em on 15'' rota gt3's, the handling is pretty hard to beat, hugs the corners like no other, although you pay a price. they only last about 10,000 miles with normal to aggressive driving (atleast my last set did). traction is pretty good at the track, check my sig ( I ran em to get the 12.2). not bad for the price

 

The Falken Azenis RT-615 is one of the most popular tires among enthusiasts. It's designed to maximize dry traction, and to act like a cross between a street tire and an R compound track tire in most respects. It offers outstanding traction on dry pavement. Downsides include so-so traction in rain (particularly as they get worn) and relatively short treadlife (typically 10-12K miles in street use, as pimpin notes). Like any summer tire, they're going to suck in snow or frigid cold. They're also moderate in price, even if you're not getting a deal on them. They're an excellent choice for someone who wants to use the same tires for everyday driving as well as for occasional track events or autocrosses.

 

They're a great tire for the entry level Autocrosser.
I put tons of runs on mine last seaon.
Still have tons of good tread left...and that is with spirited daily driving as well.
