Tires Falken or GENERAL TIRE

Falken Tires

Falken makes a pretty decent tire. I don't think they have high performance, but for a daily driver, they're pretty good.

Pros: pretty good daily driver
Cons: no high performance

I had the same tire in 245-45-17 (I think that was it) with a 99 load rating on my former '00 and liked them a lot. Quiet, comfortable, decent handling, and great price at the time.

Pros: quiet, comfortable, decent handling

i was going to get falken 512 in the 195 50 15s and save me $40 for the set, but 195 45 15 never been there, mine as well and try it out! rides comfortably as 195 50 15 doesn't feel any different from the 50 series!

Pros: rides comfortably
Cons: didnt really stretch

Pros: beautiful stretch

my 205/45/17 on a 9 in front. Don't run a 40 series, the a 205/45 Falken 512 is just as small as a 205/40 of any other brand. the tire is just that small. Trust me.

Pros: small tire
Cons: run a 40 series

GENERAL TIRE Tires

Yes, I have that size, there is some minor running when the steering is locked all the way..right or left - can't remember. But I've had them on the van for over a year now and they're fine. They're General Altimax RT. I'd buy them again.

Pros: fine, would buy again
Cons: minor running when steering locked

I just installed 4 General Ultramax HP for $480 total. The price was excellent and the ratings on Tirerack were pretty good so I gave it a shot. I've had it on for about 1 week and it's been great. Very quiet.

Pros: very quiet, excellent price

I've happily used UHP 235/45R17 tires on my Passat and Beetle 18T convertible with nothing but smooth cruising. I tried 38 psi but backed off, the slightly tauter steering wasn't worth the harshness on SoCal's crumbling surface streets. Mine were all German origin.

Pros: smooth cruising
Cons: harshness on bad roads

The Falkens suck I would never put them on my car, but they are WAY better tires than Ling Long... Ling Long, Nexen, Nankang = never ever EVER. I wouldn't trust these tire brands on my bicycle, let alone the machine holding my butt inches above the ground going 90 on the freeway.

Cons: poor quality, unreliable
