its actually a place that gives pretty good deals overall compared to other places.. :S
maybe they made a mistake..hmmm.... or maybe its the size that I want that differs the price range? |
wes, i'm currently on ecsta spt now and have no complaints, be that tread wear, noise, or grip. i went kumho due to them being considerably cheaper than the falkens and figured i'd try them out.
but generally, falkens are > kumho's, so if the price is cheaper on the falkens, hit it! |

I think I even enjoyed Direzzas more than the Falkens... either or the Direzzas lasted much longer and didn't get as worse over time
|
All this talk is making me want to branch out of these two tires and go for something else... :S
|
After having had numerous sets of tires of different makes and models, i've come to realize that there is no "perfect" tire. They all have their pros and cons and unless i start comparing Touring versus Extreme High Performance Summers, each tire within a particular category works roughly the same as their competitors in normal daily driving...
As for the noise thing, every tire will eventually get noisy the longer its in service. Just think about it, less tread depth equals more surface area that touches the ground and makes a sound. There's also rubber degradation during its service life and it does dry out which also contributes to noise. |
soundmike - good point.
Noise doesnt bother me too much. My annoyance with falkens is too much "road feel". Although the price is awesome.. I feel like I wanna try something else. Perhaps the Yokohama S Drive? Anyone try those yet? |
^ ^
My friend told me that they had "cupping" problems with those before, and Tire Rack didn't warranty the defective tires. That made me opt out of those. Maybe the new Hankook Ventus'? |

My friends store was/is a Tire Rack auth installer. AFAIK, it wasn't an install/balance/suspension problem (I may have used the wrong term, but it was a defect).
