Falken ZE 914 are quite audible on dry pavement, and they wear rapidly - I have to get rid of them after only one season, for such a price I can't recommend Falken ZE 914 - it's better to get tyres from a different brand.

The tires are ok, but are the fastest tire with which I had on this car. 14,000 kms and they are completely destroyed. There are better tires there at this price.

Probably drove too long on 2.2bar on front tyres..should have been 2.8..otherwise i think wear would have been much better..the 3.0quattro weighs 2.1 tons and as a heavy car with sports suspension i feel the tyres performed quite well for the price.

The car that my Falken ZE 914 tyres are fitted to is a 2008 Mercedes Vito 120, 205 BHP, rear wheel drive. Previously, I had Kumho KU31 tyres and I was very happy with them. They gave me good grip on both wet and dry. No corners were a problem, the tyres were reliable and had a nice visual look. With my driving style, they have lasted for 1,5 season. After consulting the helpline of Oponeo I was suggested to get Falken ZE 914 and advised that these tyres will be better at the same price. I tried them and unfortunately I am heavily disappointed. They are no match for Kumho when it comes to grip in the corners (they lose it slightly when coming out of the corner) and stability while driving. I just don't trust these tyres. For me, it's better to get Kumho or Toyo tyres instead of Falken ZE 914.

The problem with this model of falcon tyre is that it provides NO rim protection like many other tyres do. My wife, who has driven for twenty years without kerbing her wheels has managed to kerb all four on our skoda in two months. I am seriously considering throwing these tyres away even though they've only done 3000 miles.

Tires 215 / 45R18 - at a speed of about 80 km / h and 110 km / h up, they start to make noise (hum - a sound like an airplane taking off) the tire vibrate transferring vibrations to the steering wheel of the car, especially at speeds of 120km / h and higher. and the car gets into resonance during the long drive at a constant speed. Tires given to the so-called. standardization in the workshop, the transmission of vibrations to the steering wheel of the car. A little better, but not quite.
