Tires Falken or Nokia

We've had ice and slush for the last few weeks, no problem for my TDI + 16" Nokians.

I got some Falken winter tires (Northeast Ohio), they worked great for me last year, but the snow we get here in Ohio is laughable by Minnesota standards.

Can't go wrong with Nokians. On my '01 MK4 GTI, I used a set of Hakka 1s for 5 or 6 years; great tires. The Michelin Xice Xi2 are great too.

I love my Falkens. Pretty quiet, no hydroplaning and cheap! Pretty decent grip in wet and dry. Terrible in snow. And They seem to be a very soft rubber that wears a little quick.

brand new falken 912s: 2- 205/40, 2- 215/45..... for only 300 :thumbup:

I've had 512s on three of my cars. Great mileage out of them and they do great in wet and dry...

Was running Avid W4s Yokohama’s on 14" Snowflakes and nothing bad to say till 20% tread, then a loose feeling... rain was good. I'm now running 195/50/15 Falken ZE912 high performance all season and also come in 14, with the stiff coils all around I have little to no push in corners and better off on the wider stance zero off-set rims. Now the main reason is they are a great wet tire and still trying to make the front push... my buddy ran them on his BMW and didn't like the oversteer feeling of the tire folding?!!? but I'm firm believer curb weight has heaps to do with it.... my 3 cents in rainy vancouver

Deff go with the falken ziex i have them on my 14" american racing rims there amazing they hug the road exspecially with all new suspension

I paid $220 for 4 almost-brand-new Nokian WRG2 a month ago, installed. They were at about 90% remaining still. I'd rather get slightly-used good tires than brand-new pieces of sh*t. 100% happy with them so far.

Falken ZIEX 912 is the most over hyped tire I've ever had the misfortune of having mounted to my vehicle. Useless in the rain, greasy in the cold and noisy as hell as they begin to wear.
