Falken Ziex ZE-512 Review


dasl"2003 matrix xrs - 215-50-vr17 - My Firestone firehawks lasted 85,000 km. Needed new tires. Firestones were great dry weather performers, handled like a go-cart! NO good!! in the snow/rain!! The new falkens are 1" narrower & sure don't feel like 50 series tires! The sidewall is very soft and the overall effect is a tire that is very quiet, definetely not a high performance tire! The turn in input takes a lot more wheel rotation than the Firestones! Took them out in severe thunderstorm weather and found the tires to be very predictable & safe! Will up date you on winter performance in the snow later. Also, high side winds blow the car around like crazy..Soft sidewalls!!"

dasl"2003 Matrix XRS - 215-50-VR17 - Great wet weather tire. Not a high performance "Z" rated tire. Needs a lot of turn in! Very quiet on all road conditions. "BEST TIRE VALUE"!!"

Mike"2002 Acura TL-S - 215/50R17 V - Great traction in dry, rainy and snowy conditions at any speed. Alignment caused excessive wear on the inner tread (a bit suspicious of this), but they were SOOO much better than the OEM Michelin MXM4, which cost almost 2x as much! If I didn't have the inner tread issue, the tires would have lasted 1.5 times as long as the expensive Michelins, or more. Almost all my driving is around 80mph highway, with some local city driving. The cornering is excellent as well as slowing and stopping. I'm definitely getting the Falkens again!"

JW"01 Sentra SE - 195/65/15 - Excellent tire...Handles wet weather just like dry(exception being stopping...)Handling/turns/curves is a little softer than expected but still acceptable. This tire is softer and must be pumped up significantly harder than others but- does it ever stick...H rated and apparently good for 100k too... At 10k it seems to be an ideal compromise/all-season tire...Solid value...Don't know about snow/ true longevity yet..."

99 Protege ES"99 Protege ES - 195/55-15 - Replaced RE92's which I can't believe car companies use as OEM. (They're crazy dangerous in any wetness!) The 512's give up a little in turn-in crispness due to their softer sidewall, but more than make up for it with outstanding traction, even in the rain. I highly recommend them and plan on putting them onto my '04 TL."

bruce"2001 ford focus - 205\50R16 - Love the tires, corner very nice, grip well in the wet and dry weather. didn't handle anywhere as well as i hoped in the snow (had to buy winter rims and tires, have to drive in 10inches plus of snow sometimes.) and they wore down a bit quick. overall a great 3 season tire."

Driveguy"Chrysler 300M 04 - 225 x 55 x 17 - Replaced my OE with Falken Ziex after only 8,000 miles on my car. What a differance. Like day and night. Wet, snow and dry perfomance have all increased. I plan to replace the tires on my wifes car with the Falkens soon."

Anonymous"2001 Lexus ES300 - 205/60/16 - My stock Michelins wore smooth at 30K, and i replaced them with four Falkens for less than a third of what the Lexus dealer wanted for four replacement Michelins. The Falkens are outstanding in every respect--even get better gas mileage than the Michelins--except mileage. For what I paid for them, they're still a bargain. When these wear out, I'll just buy another set."
