Falken Ziex ZE-512


OR

Kumho Ecsta Supra 712

They're both pretty shitty.

i disagree with the above posters.

i have falken ziex 205/50/15's rapped around rota slips and i LOVE these tires, actually my second set, their great in the rain and in dry weather. i recommend them

 

yeah,i agree to dissagree as well,i have ziex's and i love them,good tire at a good price for your comuter

 

they are about $86.00 a tire for the falkens and about $83 for the kumhos

 

i have kumho's on my si right now and i love them. I get hella traction.

i get mad traction with my victoracers.

i think mad comes after hella.

or maybe that's crazy sick?

 

get the supras man there the best for all around driving

 

I ran the 712's for a while and they aren't a bad tire for the money. I've since upgraded to the Yokohama AVS ES100 and haven't looked back. And they are only $72 each mounted/balanced at America's Tire.

 

kuhmo 711's are the way to go. since its for daily driving, they are cheap and are awesome in wet and dry, and they last a while too...

America's tire company: http://www.discounttire.com/

If you don't have one local you can always order the tires from Tire rack: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/...1=yes

And tires in what pic?

 

oh alright, oh nvmd about the pic


EDIT: just checked and they dont have any stores in my state. o well

 

I had the 711's on the Si, replaced those with Azenis, think I am gonna try the ES 100's next. Azenis grip like mad crazy sick but are too noisy and the 711's didn't grip for ****. I used to understeer all the time when it was wet out.

 

712's suck ***...get 711's.

 

I have the Kumho's and I love them. I've never tried the Falken's though. But the Kumho's grip very well and they arent noisy at all.

 

And another factor that could help the decision. My Yokohama's stay cleaner a lot longer than the Kumhos did....... They still look new.

 

I have Falkens on my rota slips... and they are great.... way better than Toyo Fz4's that i used to run.... also Falken redesigned the 512's this year and they are supposed to be alot better than the past model.... but I have only used this new design so i dont know what the difference is between them.... but I like them..... I used to have Kuhmos on a different car and I didnt like them to much.... not that great in the rain and they didnt grip well even in the dry...
