Falken Zeix ZE512 Tires

Just bought me a set of 205/40/17 Falken Zeix ZE512 tires!

They look nice!! big jump from those cheapo wanli tires.

Anyway how do they ride?

The sidewall looks stiffer than my wanli's and the max PSI is 14psi higher than the wanli's

Are they going to be a harsher ride?? I really dont care just curious on the handling and performance aspects of the tire.

How is the traction for these tires....wet and dry

Opinions welcome! OH yea i paid 270.83 shipped

270 shipped is a really good price! dry gives nice handling, but I find it a bit more noisy than stock. Wet is good as well. In case youre wondering, these tires arent too good in the snow.
