I just wanted to give my shout outs and thanks to Falken tires, and Rota Wheels brand. Not everyone has boat loads of money to dump into their hondas or believe that wheels should ever be worth 2000bucks just cuz they have red letters on them or mugen this n that(even though i will gladly take some for 500bucks lol).

I just want to say that Falken tires are literally some of the best out door especially for the price. i paid 52 dollars each plus 7 dollars to mount and balance each one tax included at the warehouse in santa fe(KIE wholesales). i have never experianced any skidding in the rain and tires come with a **** load of thread unlike drag radials which literally make car just a .1 faster.

Sure you can get legit *** tires for 200 a piece but when your fwd and turbo, your probably gona run through tires left and right like nothing and thats really expensive and although my car isnt that low i know some people who are "hella flush"(hella-nonfunctional) are gona go through them even quicker.

Currently I have 195/50/15 tires on my Rota Slipstreams which in my opinion are the best tires that money can buy for the weight. i weighed my rims and each one weighs 10.8lbs in my bathroom scale and on top of that they look really clean.

With the slipstreams I feel that I still have a clean look while still maintaining the somewhat stock look since slipstreams appear to look alot like many stock rims that come on normal everyday cars. With my car being red with a black front end and just the only fact that its an integra makes my car stick out alot to the police so the last thing i wanted was white rims or crazy deepdish bbs rims and get pulled over.

heres a video of me getting a 2.0 60 foot and a 8.1 eighth mile (94.5mph)with a fwd turbo car with street tires!!! not even drag radials. dont think of the power think of the drivetrain and tire compound. i also take my car to GMR or azusa canyons and these tires are legit in the turns as well.

so whats the point of drag radials if no one that day was able to beat my 60ft with my street tires. theres was a k20 swapped eg and he was getting best of 2.09 or 2.1 and 8.4 to 8.9 eighth

whats the diff in the 502's and the 512's? i was looking at the 512's for a cheaper alt. to get my rims on my car. the 512's are $280 shipped thru discount.

 

i believe the 512 perform better in the rain due to the thread pattr. ithe reason i got the 502s was becuase if u split the tire in half, the thread pattern is symetrical andexactly the same just like a drag tire. road coarse tires have different design thread on the inside and outside of tires

 

Santa Fe N.M.? Wtf I guess ive been overpaying for tires

 

nah santa fe california by el monte and city of idustry. all the warehouse for most parts and tires are from around here like vis, godspeed, all chinese parts, tires, etc

 

yea falkens are great tires for the price.

their designs/logo are cool as well

 

I had some Falken Ziex 912's and they were the best tires I ever owned. I took it to Fontana Speedway, I took it on some moutnain roads and just beat on them around town, and they held up strong and didnt wear as fast as other tires...
