Who needs tires for next year? Smile

Too bad they dont sell kumho race tires....

Wow 215/45R17 Falken Azenis st115, $70 a piece.


- D_Eclipse9916 - 01-13-2006

Wow good find!


- Feersty - 01-30-2006

I made my order today....w00t.


- JackoliciousLegs - 01-30-2006

Does anybody have any experience with the Falken Ziex Ze 512? I'm looking for new all seasons. Or should I just go with ASXs from tirerack?

i bought these. I had them for about 30k miles. They have great grip and wet traction except for the first 500 miles (felt soft and greasy, but after the initial wear they were awesome). Mine need to be replaced now, but that's due to heavy camber wear and about 9000 miles in 2 weeks. at about $40/tire you can't go wrong, i'd buy them again if i needed a cheap tire.

from what i hear, the asx is a better tire for EVERYTHING.

$40/tire??? We must be looking at a different site.

opps, sorry, $60 - still pretty damn cheap (205/50/WR15)

i do recall they used to be $47 when i purchsed them - but they were just introduced to the market, i was one of the first people to have them. 2 reviews on tirerack when i first bought them.


- Feersty - 02-01-2006

Highly recommend I got my tires in two days!


- navin - 02-01-2006

nice, i wish i had some spare money right now... RT-615's and the 'Kooks look tempting..


- Yahosh - 02-07-2006

Damn those are good prices! Wish I had seen that before picking up my Kumho MXs from tirerack...

Anyone have any experience with the Falken rt615's and the Hankook z212's? Might pick up a set of these for the auto-x season, but don't know which ones to go with.


- .RJ - 02-07-2006

Falken is the best street tire you can go with for Autox


- Yahosh - 02-08-2006

yeah, that's what I've always heard. edge racing seems to think that the z212's could be comparable to the rt615's and seeing as how they are less expensive i was just wondering if anyone had any experience with them. eh, i'll probably just stick with Falkens cause i know for sure that they're sweet.


- Mike - 02-08-2006

they are comparable, but not quite as good.


- Evan - 02-08-2006

drove maeng's sti on z212 at VIR. hated them.


- Yahosh - 02-08-2006

that's good to know, any particular reason why?
