I have yet to meet someone who owns or has owned a set of Falken tires not like them.... not to mention they are a great price.... the ONLY complaint I have heard with them is that they wear to quickly and to that I say, yeah, if you get azenis model they will wear more quickly (30-60k miles) than some others but that's because they use a sticky/soft rubber compound to improve traction and handling, the ziex last longer and handle great but they aren't as sticky as the azenis....

 

ok, i was driving today, and i was going down this road that is newly paved with no imperfections or anything, but i could feel small bumps as i go along, in a constant pattern and i was driving about 30-35 mph
i dont know what that could be about, do you guys have any ideas?

 

maybe you are just not used to driving on low profile tires?

 

**Sir_Nasty get the 5 star rated answer correct, and folks that's why I asked that question

Agreed. The amount of sidewall has a lot to do with the amount of cushion you get. My M3 came with Michelin PS2s on 19" rims. I bought the car in April and got used to a very stiff suspension (as expected / desired) and non-compliant ride. For winter, I put on a set of Pirelli Sottozeros on 17" rims, for the same overall outer diameter. The difference in ride was very apparent, as the larger sidewalls on the Pirelli's absorbed quite a bit of the road shock.

 

yea, that's my conclusion
because this past week, i havent really felt it that bad, so i guess i have gotten used to it
but i still need better suspension[align=center] [/align]

 

I cruise the Falken's as well. I just sold my 2001 civic and it had 18's on it. 235/35/18 I loved them. I had no trouble with them. But when there was somthing wrong with the tire, like one got a crack in the side wall, it was driving ruff.

But really, isn't that a good thing?

 

can stock 205s fit 17" rims?
