Falken ZE 914 - User reviews

I've had quite a few Falkens in the past and these are no different to the usual quality that I've had. When we bought this car it was shod with Michelin's on front and Continental's on rear this had the entertaining effect of making the car quite unstable in the wet, especially straight line braking. Since the Falkens were fitted the car is a different animal altogether, she really holds the line in corners and feels very sure footed on fast winding country roads. The wet grip is very good when driving enthusiastically and again feels sure footed. Now I dare say that the car itself does handle well but these tyres definitely compliment the suspension and chassis. Some reviews mention lots of road noise, I have to be honest my car seems quieter on these Falkens than my last Michelin's and Continentals. Overall I have no problem recommending these tyres to anyone.

I bought Falken ZE 914 tyres basing on the reviews of users. I testem them in various conditions, eg. motorway in Germany, fast cornering, sharp and sudden braking, driving in the rain. Previously I had Michelin Primacy HP tyres and I find Falken ZE 914 way better, and also three times cheaper! In my case, I find it useless to buy Michelin or Goodyear which were complained about fast wear and cracks in the sides as they don't ground your complaints. It's just simple overpaying. What's better - I also noticed lowert fuel consumption. Overall, I find Falken ZE 914 a good tyre which is worth buying.

I will say this - I do not pay attention to the so-called. noise, because it is an aspect depends on many factors - in turn keeping to the asphalt surface and cornering (even on wet roads at the roundabout) - a revelation - I can definitely recommend this tire (of course including size) - the ratio of price / quality - 10 / 10 greet

By purchasing these tires, I was not convinced by falken. Today I know that it's a great choice. The biggest surprise was the behavior of the car in the wet where compared to the Pirelli P Zero Rosso car holds up perfectly, even when driving through deep puddles

I do over 15000 a year and they are standing up well so far. If you drive agressivly you will shorten the life of the tyre. That said you will shorten any make of tyres life with aggressive driving. I'm an intermediate driver and so far there are wearing well.

Falken ZE914 Ziex recommend to all who depend on the new tire at a reasonable price. Tire "cooperates" with the vehicle in both the wet and the dry state. It is not loud, it does not wear out too quickly. I would definitely recommend!

It is really worth investing in Falken tires. They are very well-suited for the urban cycle as well as for longer trips. Very good grip, driving, quiet and comfortable. Quality really satisfactory and tires worth recommending.

this tyre is a brilliant option for cars like the CRV I have used other brands, and none have been as good as the Falkens, will use them again, as well as order them from oponeo, who have also delivered excellent service

I fitted these in combination with stiffer front suspension bushes on my Z3 and the handling is greatly improved. The tyres were responsible for the larger part of the improvement. Very pleased.

A big name and a high price are not a guarantee of a good tyre, experience and a bit of good fortune goes a long way. A pot hole has no consideration for a big brand name.
