The V103 or V105. My friend use the V103 also fast wear....
Yah!

The sidewall are reinforced and they are so well fitted that when fitted to the rims there is no space in between the tyre rubber and the rim edge....:driver:
Go in any potholes have no worries :biggrin: Only suspension kong :rofl:

Which model of Falken Tyres? ZE912?

I used to use Falken ZE912 before but not sure what was the traction rating at that time since now
the new ZE912 is Traction A instead of AA if not wrong.

My Falken only lasted about 1 1/2 years well, with a bit of hardcore driving on corners and not just
a normal drive which would last me 2 years+ if I were to drive it nicely. :biggrin:

New falken ZE912 since the traction reading drop, then not worth getting. If say expensive,
is not as expensive as Michelin. Should be roughly the same as GoodYear tyres.

What size are u using btw? since u already use for 2 years guess almost time to change :smile:

The best tires I've ever used are Michelin Pilot Sport 3. For daily driving and some occasional fast cornering action, these tires are excellent, rain or shine. Excellent grip and superb steering response. It's quite comfy too. The only downside is it's price, especially for 17" wheels and above. Hardcore drivers may not like their soft sidewalls though.

Not lowest quality but inexpensive compares to most brand. I like Falken Azenis (Not sure what model it is?) and Kumho XS or MX. Those are "grippy" tires for autox and track but not good in rain.
Very stiff side wall, so noisy and "bumpy". I have seen Dunlop Direzza DZ101 did very well after heat cycled. Advan tires are also grippy but more expensive.

Falken ZE-322 and ZE-522 are quite hopeless in wet. Old ZE-912 is not too bad.
I think Azenis series is their top of the range offering. I have used ST-115 and I could say
it's on the same level with Yokohama S.Drive. Aqua planing is very bad at 50% though.
FK-452 is fine but noisy.

AD-07 and 08 is damn stick in dry but the same cannot be said in wet. I have more confident to drive fast in wet with the S.drive compare to AD-08.
Good all round tyres are PS3. Grippy in both condition and still being comfortable. Prefer something cheaper like RE-002 for touge though.

Falken brand also have their range like BS having Turanza and Potenza. Falken range are Ziex and Azenis. Because they always market the Ziex range kao kao, not much mention about the Azenis.
Earlier days they did push the Azenis ST-115. I have used many sets of this, because money for value...Again like BS the Potenza have the high range and low range from RE-030 to RE-070 or S-001, the Falken Have PT and FK range.
Okay, better not confuse you too much....ha! ha!
Falken in UK listed in Mid with the likes of Toyo, Yoko, Hankook and Kumho

Exactly, one have to find the tyre that fits one priorities. Hardcore will go extreme tyres, but not good for daily drives...:driver:

If using Komho XS and MX series the Falken should be the RT-615 extreme series....:driver:

Yup, the ZE-322 and 522 are just budget range. ST-115 no more....and FK-452 directional now replace with FK-453 asymmetric....

FK-452


FK-453


Yah! now looks like CSC, HPY and so on....haha:biggrin:

Conclusion is PS3 is not really for track or race. More like daily drive car with good grip and comfort. Which is why the sidewall
was meant to be soft? I mean if hard, you wont feel your car is comfortable with PS3 yet has the good grip in both dry and wet.

RE002 is cheaper than PS3? RE002 might be better if you a bit more sporty-inclined I reckon?
Yah! as far as I know RE-002 not cheap either....
