Tires Toyo or Falken

was gonna tell you to get the falkens over the nexuns... the nexuns are not a good stretch tire at all by any means.. i have 205 40 16 falken 512s on my 9s and its a beautiful stretch, i have nexens on the front of my show car and hate them

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.

My RE50s were also loud at 16K. I replaced them with Falken Ziex RE 912s at 20k and they are very quiet.

Well Evan Tire of San Diego did a remarkable job. They'd installed a new left tie rod, 2 Falkine 912 tires and performed a wheel alignment. I took it for atest drive then hit the highway. I love the feel of the car now. Lowered cener of gravity, steering response is a bit more accurate with less body roll.

Toyo Proxes 4 (note: not the FZ4). Had them on my Integra GSR and would be my 1st choice when it comes time to replace the tires on my JSW.

I have 225/40/18 912's on my 18x8.5 and they stretch enough to clear my fenders. And I am pretty low. They are very quiet and are very good in the rain. I can take puddles at normal highway speeds and not even feel it. I have had them for about 10k miles and I have noticed little if any tire wear.

Used to run 195/40/17 Toyo's on my mk2.

i think it's possible to find smaller than 205/40 but not easily or cheaply.. i think you can get 195/45. however the falken 512 (which you can now only get from discount tire on ebay) is much smaller than most 205/40's. it's what i run on my mk3 and they are much smaller than the set they replaced.

It varies from tyre brands,i have 8x15 with toyo proxes and compared it to another 8x15 with kleber and the kleber tyre looked like 205 compared to the toyo (on identical rims)

Compared to the Dunlop SP-5000 Sports on my GLI, which have a couple years on them at this point and only cost $74 apiece, the Falkens are awful; they don't grip, they're ugly, and they're noisy.
