    Falken Ziex ZE-512

    Anyone ever used these tires, and if so, with what result?

    Looking at some cheap-o but still fairly nice tires to stick on the daily wheels. Putting Azenis on the auto-x set. :twisted:

        Why? Got any better suggestions?

        Stu's got Sumitomo HTRs, and they grip fairly well for a cheap tire.

        Keep in mind, I'm not looking for a trackworthy tire, just something to drive around on and occasionally take a curve or two.

          Ziex are a good street tire with long tread life.

            I love my ziex. Good tread life, Awesome rain performance, pretty sticky in the dry, quiet ride.

                  I've had'em on mine for about 7000 miles and they're great. Great as an everyday tire, and they last forever.

                    they squeel like lil bitches, pretty bad in rain.

                    and quiet? no way

                    i don't have a good thing to say about them other then they last long as hell, but i'm not sure that's a good thing, as it only gives them more time to torture you w/ their sub-par performance.

                      It's your opinion vs. 4 others... I'm getting the Ziex.

                          He doesn't want Azenis here, just a decent tire so he can drive his car.

                            e304lyfe has 1st Gen Ziex's

                            Pretty much the worst tire you can get.

                            The new Ziex's are 10x better.
