Benz"1995 S320 - 225 60 HR 16 - To those that owns a big Benz but could not find a review: Had Yokohama before installing new Falken. Could have installed Toyo, Michelin, Goodyear and Uniroyals but since the review was good for these tires and very reasonable in price with a 100,000Km warranty, I thought to give it a try. I have almost 7,000km on them and they have been great! If I had to put new tires again, I will have no hesitation to replace them with Falkens again. "

chinee"2003 Infiniti G35 sedan - 225/55/17 - These tires performed pretty decently; they stuck well and handling more than adequately for my spirited (but not racing) driving style. I liked their aggressive look and the sidewall really does protect the rim from encounters with curbs. More than once I've thought that I curbed my wheels, but was pleasantly surprised to find no damage whatsoever. Now the negative... I found them to be noisy, and noisy, and noisy. I also hit the wear bars at 16000 miles, and I rotated them every 5-6,000 miles. So these did not last as long as I hoped they would; I wanted to get 25-30,000 miles out of this set but it was not to be. Also, nearing the end of their lives, traction in wet conditions evaporated; at 14000 miles, these hydroplaned all the time. I just ordered a set of Kumhos (KH11 I think) based upon the feedback at other websites. We'll see how these do."

Randy"1999 Mazda 626 LX - 195/65-14 - Last year I bought these tires and it said the tires were good for 60,000 miles. Now the site says 30,000??? Other sites say different things??? Too shady for me to buy again. Other then the tires wearing out way before they were expected to, they do great on dry pavement, very good on wet (so long as you know how much tread you have) and not too good in snow."

Christian"Volvo S40 - 195/65R15 - This tire handles very well on cornering and does not hydroplane like my old tires (pirelli p6's) and they are very well priced as well."

Mark S."1996 Toyota Corolla - 175/65 14 - I bought these on strength of CU ratings. Installed Feb 04 and almost worn out at 38,000 miles. North central Illinois area offers rain and snow and ice. Tires generally had good traction and handled fairly well. Noise was a significant problem. Tread wear is a dissapointment. I might buy these tires again, but maybe not."

Andrew"1995 Ford Escort LX sedan - 185/60R/14 - I just bought 4 new Falken Ziex 512 tires for my 1995 Ford Escort sedan. I bought them in size 185/60R/14. I am amazed how these tires perform. They are really quiet, and they grip exceptionally well. I took several corners and highways curving on-ramps at much higher speeds than normal, and they just stuck to the road. They are very "grippy". They have exceeded my expectations. I mostly got them because they are the #1 rated tire in Consumer Reports, and also because alot of people on the internet gave them a great rating. Now I know why. I have tried almost every brand of tire, and these are by far the best I have tried. I can't say enough about these tires. They are much better than other tires, even better than more expensive tires. "

Jean-Pierre"BMW E30 - 195/60/14 - Good grip, excellent in rain, decent handling. Sidewalls are a bit soft in this size, but only under very hard driving, really not even a problem for a light car. Comfortable and quiet, except for a small whine in hard cornering. "

Low tire noise until the speed is over 140KM/h Handling is quite numb due to the deep threads and soft rubber (will improve as the tire wears) Tread wear is good considering it has a rating of 360. Did not try it on snow yet. This is a great all around sport tire for the money. This tire might not be as good as say,,,,, a P ZERP NERO. But its fair price makes the different. "

Mike"2003 Grand Prix GTP - 225/60/16 - I have put 4,000 miles on the 512's so far mostly highway. The Goodyear RSA's that these replaced, 2 were worn to just above the wear bands 2 had just less than 50% left. The RSA's prob. would have lasted 70,000 miles if the prev owner would have rotated. I noticed the 512's are quiet, smooth, look nice, to me they handle fine on tight turns on 2 lane roads at speeds higher than the turn is rated. I am by no means a high performance driver or have enough experience with other brand tires on this same car to make any comparisons, how ever these tires seem great to me on this car. Wet traction and tire wear remain to be seen. "
