Default Falken Ziex 512 - Anyone have them???

I know all u guys will say get the Azenis or S-03's, but does anyone have any experience w/ these ones?? Theyre H rated.
I need a tire for daily driving now, that will last me a while.

TIA.

well I just those Falken 512 205-50-15 and they seem to grip okay. Can't really feel the road like the Oem Re010 but I think they will work fine if you use them as a daily driver tire.

The Falken Ziex 512 are going to replace the Ziex 502. I don't know about the 512 but I had the 502s and THEY SUCKED!!!! Horrible in wet weather, even drive weather was only average. Go with Kumho or something but avoid the Falken Ziex

had the ziex 512 THEY SUCKED. good for regular driving but if you plan on doing any road racing or autox i would not buy these tires. they are load and you skid all over the place.

512's suck as in traction. Very soft sidewalls. But they last pretty long. Thats why I got them for daily driving and another set for the track.
