Falken Ziex
im thinking about going with some Falken Ziex 205/50/16 tires for my 16x7 Rota's. is $320 a good price for all four tires with free replacement certificates? thanks for any info!....or should i get the Azeni's for like the same price....
i heard www.whalentire.com and www.vulcantire.com have great prices for that kind of tire. last time i checked, they sold it cheaper than americatireco
i suggest not gettin falken tires period. heard bad things about em cause they are Firestone tires. they blow really easy. if u dissagree w.e i dont care. just a lil warning. if u arent in budget go with pirelli pzero neros. one of the best tires out there.
I'm using 205/50/16 with rotas, o trusts me they're great tires, especially their design on the sidewall, it tends to be fatter than other tires with the same size, so it protect ur rims whenever u bump into something...
I had Ziex's and Azenis before, and I can honestly say that I will never buy a set of Ziex's (rims I had already had them mounted). The Ziex's will tend to slide on faster turns, but if you're just using them for daily driving they should be fine. They will last a hell of a lot longer than the Azenis though. If I had to choose, I'd go with a different set of tires, but for the price the Ziex's are okay.

Get either Falken Azenis or Hankook Ventus RS-2
Both will cost you under 100 per tire and either will outgrip the Ziex by 100x.

I just put those on my girls car.....hell of a lot better than the factory tires...but her car is unmodded yet. I've driven in an accord with those tires, and they aren't azenis, but the cost hella less, and do a pretty good job....especially with a heavier car, so that's what I'm getting while I wait for my HFP's

Rep Power: 529 I got my Ziexs from vulcantire.com. They might not be the best tires in the world, but they're 10 times better than our stock hydrofoi... er, I mean, tires.

Rep Power: 0 Falken Ziex's are ideal tires if you have an extreme supsension set up but need to try the car daily. Cheap, decent grip in wet and dry, comfortable (relatively). I've had them on for about 10,000 kms and I have -3* camber in the front and rear and not much wear on the insides. And I do a lot of peelouts and donuts too. RWD = teh roxxors.

Tire Co.. so i get wholesale pricing. it came out to like $290.00. not bad imo, but ill see after i drive for a while. plus these Falken's have a 30,000 mile warrnaty from Falken as compared to Nitto's zer0 mile warranty! so i wanted a better deal for same price, well made
