Has anyone here had any experience with Falken tires? I'm thinking of trying the Falken Ziex ZE-512, a V rated A/S performance tire.
I've heard some really good comments from some of the locals, and the price is excellent!

Gordgee,
I have Falken Ziex Tires on my present Car. I've been Happy with them. Low Price, Good Grip, Good All weather performance, Last fairly long. I am using the 225-35-19 on 19x8 wheels. If I up grade I would buy the Falken GRB fk451's Wow I sound like a Commercial.......

 

Thanks. They sound like one of the best performance tires for the price.
Another one that I was looking at was the Federal SS595. It's an 'ultra-high performance' summer tire out of Japan for about the price of the Falkens. They look GREAT in person, but The closest size I could get would be a 245/45-17. Might worth a try for those of you that want a 45 and under profile tire on you 18s and up for a reasonable price. They go for almost half the price of Pilots!

Here you go.

GSM, check out the Federal Tire link above as well. In person, they look extreme and for those looking for summers for the coupe, or for the larger wheel, lower profiles, I think they might be great to try. Not as readily available though.[img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

GSM, I'm not sure who carries Falken in your area, but I believe that Kal Tire in Thunderbay carries both Falken and Federal.

Yeah this winter when I was sliding backwards, I was yelling "FALK-IN 18" TIRES"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I've had Falkens on my last 3 cars, and that's all I use they are high quality and inexpensive, go for it!

 

Sounds great. I was all set to order the Falkens for myself, but my wife said I could have a set of Pilot Sport A/Ss for my birthday. Now how could I refuse! [img]/w3timages/icons/laugh.gif[/img] They're on order and should be here next week.

BTW, which Falkens did you run and did you find them noisey at all? Also, any good in light snow (if A/S)? Others may be interested.
