Overall tire ok, price reasonable and nice look. But behind the rear axle skid in the rain on curves understating the assessment and would not recommend! When it rains I feel like I rode on some Chinese cheap chłamie. And now I had the opportunity to have a comparison of the GT CHAMPIRO and falkeny are slightly better, but not what I expected. In the second car michelin pilot primacy in general different story but the reputation of an obligation.

Falken Ziex ZE 912 tempts with a low price, but this model is not a sensational one. Its grip on dry surface is OK, a bit worse when braking. In the corners the grip is also not bad, but despite the low profile and a reinforced bead it could be better. When it comes to driving on wet, it's not so great. Once I even had an unpleasant situation in heavy rainwhen the road was covered with a layer of water (a few millimeters, the entire surface covered equally), and the tyre lost its grip after hitting the brake pedal hard (car behaved like a boat ^^ ) but after releasing the pedal the car regained its grip. On my previous tyres (Uniroyal RainSport 2 in the same size) I have never experienced a phenomenon like that. Generally, the tyre doesn't wear off in a quick pace (about 1.5 mm last season), but I decided to fit them to rear and put my Uniroyals on the front (despite the fact they're older and have a softer sidewall, giving the impression of slidind tyre). I needed tyres quickly and I think that less demanding users should be satisfied with Falken ZE 912's performance, but I think it's worth to fit something decent to maximize the safety.

The tyre wears down in record time, less than a year, less effective in the corners, in general I do not recommend it, except what a total shit.

I've been using these tyres for the second season now, generally it's no revelation, it's an average tyre without drawbacks, on wet it's terrible, just a little bit of water flowing across the road and the car is out of control like on ice, so definitely they are not suitable for wet (the car is a VW Passat B5 Variant), Previosly I had Nexen N3000s and I haven't noticed such phenomenons and I thought that Falken ZE 912s will be better, because before I had Falken FK 451s and there were no problems on wet surface.

Often with the addition of gas shall be accompanied by ESP, cornering and slippery conditions the car is able to move a few centimeters. As for me, this is very dangerous tire. The tire is very durable. I would recommend the Sunday drivers. Regards

Falken ZE 912s are good and not expensive tyres for cheaper cars. I can recommend with a clear conscience.

I bought new Falken ZE 912s. They feathered very quickly. Now they are very noisy.

Driven distance: more than 15 thousand miles - fast, very aggressive driving style. Pros: + quite good abrasion (after 15 thousand miles there's still plenty of tread) + good grip on dry pavement + vary rare slips when rush starting on dry pavement + goog quality-price ratio + very interesting tread pattern Cons: - loses grip in tight 90 degree bends atb speeds about 45-50 MPH on dry pavement - no grip on wet pavement! - Frequent aquaplaning! - A bit noisy Summary: Falken ZE 912 is a tyre for someone who starts an adventure with a sports car, drives safely and carefully in the corners. For really fast drivers I'd rather recommend Yokohama S.drive AS01 or something better.
