Long time Falken user here- the 615’s last forever, and give you great performance value. I recommend these tires to newer intermediate drivers that are starting to need something grippy, but not too grippy that it starts to cover up your mistakes / become a crutch.

Pros: great performance value, last forever
Cons: not great in wet

Running 615+ on my race/street car. Car is fair weather but have been caught in the rain. Hoping they last 9 events this year plus less than 1500 street miles. Love the tires just did my first event and performed great.

Pros: performed great, love tires
Mileage: 2414 km

i ran 615s on a gti for two-ish seasons and i’d highly recommend them for the track, but would warn you at least for me, they weren’t great on the street if any water entered the chat.

Pros: highly recommend for track
Cons: not great on street
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I use to run their ar1 then I saw the falken rt660 came out and those last longer. Grip feels about the same, I got a faster time on the falkens.

Pros: faster time on falkens
Cons: grip feels about same

Update after driving to, on and back from the track - The grip is much greater than stock Hankooks, was a wet day but I still found the grip to be quite impressive. The brakes stayed cool without any signs of fade or losing brake feel.

Pros: grip is much greater

I don't know the full story but a local Golf R owner is dealing with DSG issues with his tuned MK8R right now. Dealer thinks it needs a new mechatronics unit or a completely new DSG.

Cons: DSG issues, new unit needed

GT Radial Tires

I drive a 05 wrx and have had both Blizzak WS80 and GT Radial Ice Pro 3 on it. I only got the GT Radials because I was in grad school and they were cheap. They get the job done, but are definitely not as good as blizzies. Obviously haven't done any scientific tests, but the steering feel is noticeably worse on the radials, stopping distance is much longer, acceleration worse. Frequently notice them understeering significantly on both wet and snowy roads.

Pros: cheap
Cons: worse steering feel, longer distance
Vehicle: Subaru
