Falken 912's
#1
After two years of abusing my Falken 512's, It's time to look at new tires. Has anyone purchased Falken 912's and how much did you pay? I have 15 inch stock rims, and unless Santa gives me a new car, or rims, I'll still be needing 195/65/R15 tires

I bought my set of 912s last spring - for 215-45-17s I paid 450.00 including taxes and installation. They aren't quite as sharp handling as the 512s (which I had prior) but I found them excellent on the track and in both wet and dry conditions on the road - highly recommended.

The 912's are on all my pops vehicles...great tire, def recommend them.

If you have a dedicated winter already, I recommend the Rt-615's. Amazing band for your buck summer tire.

I agree with you on the RT 615's Flo they are sweet. Unfortunatly, my RT 615s only lasted me from May to October. They are completly bald and I didnt even burn them out <_< I guess you can say with the 25,000kms of driving it did them in.
