yeah, I've used them on my van and on my cooper... never had a problem with them... good life, rode fine... made out of black stuff with grooves in it

but I never really had a problem with 10" falkens either, so maybe I'm not enough of a hoon to qualify for judging what's good and bad in a tyre

(though anyone who knows me ought to know otherwise!!)

did I tell you that I won a trophy?

yeah i've used falkens in 10" and 12"

they were both pretty bad on the limit, breaking away suddenly without warning, and bad in the wet

i prefer the bridgestone sf226 to the falkens in 10"

i popped some 539's on in 12" and it felt a million times better than the falkens.

i cant recommend them unless you do no spirited driving and want your tyres to last forever

Problem is finding good 165/60x12 size tyres now like the A539's in Oz.

A friend of mine owns an independent tyre business and he cannot even find anything else but the Falkens unless one goes for the semi race type tyre...

Well that's alright I reckon, cheaper than any of the shops I tried, some even offered them (the Falken's) to me for around $130 a corner.

I paid about $115 a corner for the 165/70/R10 Dunlop Formula R's and a tad bit more for the Falken's, maybe they've gone down in price?
