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.

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.

I hit Aug. 4-ry defective pieces, they could not be balanced and at speeds of 110-130km / h beating on the steering wheel oczuwalne + bang. The problem persisted at speeds above 140km / h I therefore tire speed 110km / h Very loud, very oczuwalna change of surface (ie roughness of the asphalt). I have a third season Pirelli P7 which is poząbkowały, so will no longer be silent. However Falkeny of them are a lot louder. Tire rigid and does not choose inequality. But thanks to lead to dry at higher speeds - worth recommending. On wet - on average, worse than the Pirelli P7. Generally, I would not recommend. Better to pay more and look for something better.

The conductor runs 914 Falken 205/50 / R17 bought about 1 month ago on the Internet. The parameters of the tire are satisfactory for me, although in mainly guided by zakupioe whether the tire has bead protection. Informed me of course ..... and here is a great disappointment bead almost no wheel is on par with the tire. I & compare with the previous tires pirelli same rozmarow. If somebody does not depend on wheels and has little power in your car is from poverty can buy because the price is affordable.

Tires bought suggesting that the opinions. I was looking for tires as a quiet and comfortable but unfortunately disappoint. At a speed of about 80 km / h and then from 110 km / h are starting to make noise (hum - a sound like an airplane taking off) in addition to vibrate and auto resonates during long driving at a constant speed. 200-300 km drive ends with a headache and really tiring. On old winter tyres and summer turanzach was much quieter. Founded on the new wheels, driven about 1000 km, two times were balanced, stiff suspension, no backlash. Reportedly had to arrange and get - nothing. I give to the complaint.

Tires are great. Prior to operate a Toyo PXT1R and I think that Falkeny are so much better especially on wet roads where Toyo were really dangerous. Looking for tires on dry and wet pavement, I recommend Falken! Tires have the size 205/45 R17. Uses them in a Honda Civic type ro 230 hp

Falken ZE 914 is loud and hard. It could also be better in the rain. In my opinion, Falken ZE 914 is overrated.

Tire cheap and weak after a year of use (30tys km) has teething. I have winter tires I drive better brand which already 2 years and better exercise (no signs of wear and any damage). Falkeny are terribly uncomfortable and loud, I feel that the longer they are noisier ride. The tragedy, pity money. It is better to pay more and have peace of mind for longer.
