After long consideration and reading tons of reviews I decided to go ahead and buy these Falken Tires.

I have been driving 4 months (about 10000 km) with these fitted and couldn't be more happy with my choice!
I drive mostly long distances on highways combined with short city drives. They are very quiet and provide an excellent confident feeling both in the dry and in the wet.
Even at higher speeds they are very progressive and feedback is great.

For the tire size I was unable to find any tire as cheap as this one with still great performance.

Finally after 10000 km the tires still look like new with near to no wear.

I will definitely buy these tires again!

Fantastic tyres. I have tried most of the premium tyres including Michelin, Bridgestone, Pirelli and Yokohama and haven't been totally happy with any of them all round. Having read the reviews on this site I chose to try the Falken tyres. I was apprehensive at first because I had though of Falkens as a budget to mid range tyre, but they are better than any of the other makes I have tried. They wear well lasting a full year with some very spirited driving in a car with very high torque. Grip in the wet is nearly identical to grip in the dry, which is superb; water dispersal is excellent. I think it highly unlikely that I will use anything but these Falken tyres in the future. If all other tyres were half price I would still opt for ZE914's, excellent work Falken.

Overall I am very satisfied with them. In my size 18" they were around half the price of premium tires, but they give similar performance. Low rolling noise tires, yet quieter than several brands on the market with special emphasis tires. Highly recommended.

I bought these tyres by coinsidence 5 years ago.
I drove them a lot and drove them very hard on my audi quattro 180hp.
Never failed me neither with grip nor with braking.Drove them over 10 times on track- no problem :D
for five years and approximately 50 000 kms, the tyres could last another year /this one/, but they were cut by some idiots. Just the previour year and this one as much as i drove them, they started to make a slight slipping when its wet and chilly. but nothing to be afraid of.
Anyway, would have bought the same but I couldnt find ones for sale at my country. Replacing them with Nokian Zline, as just Line is not offered on stock here.

Great tyres, surprisingly good value given how good they are. They're not the best for noise but they're by no means bad either, grip is excellent both wet and dry. Will buy again unless someone can persuade me onto something else, which would be a challenge.

Pros - Excellent wet grip, very progressive and controllable at the limit. Great dry grip. Comfortable ride and a reasonably stiff sidewall giving good responsiveness and feedback. £237 for all 4 fitted at Halfords.
Cons - Meant to have rim protection but it's very shallow. Noisy when pushed... not squealing, more a crunching sound.

My previous tires were Barum Bravuris 2, good tires but these are better in every way. I can't comment on longevity as they're only a few weeks old but I'm very impressed at the performance of these supposedly middle-range tyres on my nose-heavy Civic. Understeer has greatly reduced in the wet and comfort, responsiveness and grip have improved.

Very good tyres. Relatively hard compound, so they last well. However this longer life does make the tyre loose a small amount of wet grip compared to some tyres which use softer compounds. The tyres are comfortable and give a good ride, but they are not the quietest tyres, especially on rougher surfaces. In my size they were around half the price of Michelin Primacy HP but they give similar performance.

This tyre is outstanding, perfet tyre for a tourin car, not made to be driven on the track, it is a High Class Tyre, it can easily compete with Goodyear, Pirelli, Michellin...

Very good tyres for the money. Dry and wet grip are good and progressive, although ultimate traction isn't as good as the Uniroyal Rainsport 3 I have fitted to my other car. These wear better though. The only other thing I can critisise these tyres for is that they are relatively noisy, at least on this car. I would probably buy them again.

I have only had the tyres for 2000 miles. The previous tyres were NEXEN N8000.
The Falkens are more comfortable and quieter in all conditions than the previous tyres but also turn in crisper on bends. They don't aquaplane when at speed in standing water, but I should hope not as they still have >8mm of tread. The dry grip is impeccable for normal high speed twisty road driving.
I do not drive in a crazed way so have not had cause to get near the limits yet and car is a Quattro so have to be a bad driver to make a problem.
They have rim protection and a sensible sidewall design. As always, I will do another review when they are doen to 2mm.

By far the best tyre i have had fitted.8,000 miles on mini cooper s and excellent on grip both wet and dry.Have had a fair few tyres like proxes,kuhmos and wanli (sorry to say) but these are the best in my opinion.still have 5mm left on fronts and 7mm on rears,brilliant

Great tyre on my C4 Picasso. I have the 97 Load index ones. Previous tyres were Michelin Primacy that lasted only 11000 miles. Done some homework and bought 4 of these. Car is much quieter even with a higher load index, and grip in both wet and dry is excellent. I was so impressed that i also have replaced my wife's Kia Rio with these when the Kumho's shreded after 8000 miles !!!!
Definitely will buy these again for both cars
