    I've been running on a set of these in 225/50-15s for over a year and a half now and have no complaints. It is a good all-around tire for DD usage and respectable in the wet too. Would I run them on a track day? No effing way....give me some Azenis Sports or RT615s for that duty. IMHO the Ziex 512s have been good enough that I purchased a second slightly used set (< 2.5K miles) in the same size for $100 from a friend. They will go on the car just as soon as my current set is toast.

    I recommend them.

    I had some Kumho 711's on my old Civic and man that thing handled like shit in the rain. I've had Ziex's before I thought they were pretty decent.

    Kumho 711 or 712's are by far worse tires.

    The SHITTIEST tires ever...

    Falken Ziex's have to be the worst tires ever made. So im coming home and all of a sudden my fucking tire explodes on the freeway. I pull over to the side and change to my spare and i look at my blown tire to see why it exploded. It had no nails or holes in the tread, just a ripped sidewall. I didnt hit anything on the freeway and I definately didnt over inflate it bc i check almost ever week. It was used for only a couple months so it was still pretty new and still had a lot of tread. WTF. anyway I dont recommend these to anyone and Im definately never getting them again. Any ideas on a new tire??
