Falken Ziex ZE-512 Review


Anonymous"Volvo S90 - Was going to get the Proxes 4 after I finished with my RE950. local dealer ran out of Proxes4 so I got these... I tested out it's snow ability at the first day i got it. They are great in snow. I can drive around the city with 2~4" snow with no traction control. Havn't yet try out their dry and wet traction but I expect they should be excellent too. Still concering should I go for Proxes 4 after I tried the 512. But they are excellent.. Much better than my OEM Michelin and after market RE950. "

Robert"Accord V6 - Good wet/dry traction. Pretty good in snow too. Tires are pretty noisy. Must be a flaw as there's an oscillating hum. Not that smooth over expansion joints and bumps. Good tire for grip, but really lacks in the comfort/quite department."

BMRBabe"1994 BMW 530 iT - Usually picky and hard to please, but I have to say I'm very impressed with the quality and performance of these tires. 60,000 miles+. Smooth and quiet on dry or rain wet streets. Mid-range performance in several inches of snow (even when it's outside of what they are designed for). If they keep making them, I'll keep buying them.

Then another tire had the same problem. Without fail, the tires would have a flat spot every morning until they warmed up and would even out. If you are looking for a performance tire, this is not it. Pay a little more and get the something far superior like the Toyo Proxes 4...like night and day. Do not place too much reliance upon consumer ratings on the ZE-512's. I truly regretted buying them. If you have a decent import/european vehicle, stay away from these please."

Aleksey"Subaru Forester XT - I use 225/50/17 size. These tires are very good. There are only few All-Season tires that are better than Falkens Ziex-512 overall, but their price are much higher. This is the best deal ever. I am definitely a repeat customer."

So atleast I got my moneys worth out of them. Now for these tires. I haven't had a chance to driv eon them a whole lot but here are my first impressions. The ride is nice. Much queiter than my old tires. And the traction is great. The only thing I have question on is the tread life. But for the money I will take them. I compared to the Michelin Sport A/S or the never in stock Bridgestone Turanza LS-V (which was my first choice). Overall very pleased."

DAN V."03 infiniti g35 - This tire was rated #1 by a leading consumer rating magizine. I think they forgot to test it around corners. Traction is great but the sidewalls are WAY to soft for a performance tire. It will feel like something is wrong with your suspension. After 70 miles replaced with Goodyear F1 GS-D3. Have not liked Goodyear for along time but these are awesome. If you buy the Falkens it better be for a Buick Century!"

Miller"1991 Tercel (2 dr/5spd) - I've had my Falken Ziex ZE-512's on for about a month now, and the ride feels great. I went from 175-75/13's to 205-40ZR/17's. I'm sure the car handles better now just because I have a wider diameter wheel now, but I still think the tires have something to do with it. Anyways, I mainly bought this tire because I wanted a balance between wet and dry weather traction. I haven't upgraded the rest of my suspension yet, but the dry pavement traction is definately better. But my car handle 10 times better when it rains. Awsome tire in my opinion."

Mike Ziehl"Infiniti I30 t - Bought these to replace the factory Bridgestones. Wow, I didn't really know just how bad the RE92s were until I had these. Plus,in the snow in the Boston area this winter they are 100% better. Way better in wet weather as well with much better tracking an no hydroplaning at highway speeds. For the price, ($97/tire 225/50/17) they can't be beat. Only 5K miles on them so far so I can't comment on treadwear, but I am very happy with these tires!"

Pete F"Audi A6 Quattro - Best all around performance tire I've ever driven on. I've had some good one's s/a Mich Pilot Sports..but this is better in weather and quieter. Get V-rated, at this price why are you wasting time with H's? Some of the poor reviews are either H's, under-inflated, on bent rims or just plain nuts. These aren't pure summer track tires so don't compare as such..but they are a great all-season handlers that last. If these ever wear-out, I'm getting them again...no second thoughts!!"

kserey"Acura TL-S - Great handling, ride, and look. Horrible treadwear. Not kidding, had to be replaced at less than 15,000 miles. I cant beleive someone could claim they got 50,000 miles on this 30,000 mile tire. No way."
