Falken Ziex ZE950 A/S 205/50ZR17XL 93W BW All Season Tire

When i was a teen i would always wanted Michelin or Bridgestone top of the line tires. When they are brand new I can tell the difference between the premium tires and the cheaper tires. What all these reviews don't tell you if that super expensive tire only greatly outperforms the cheaper tire for the first couple thousand miles. When they are brand new and super soft they can preform much better than a cheap tire but by the time the tread is at 80% most of that performance gap is gone. A lot of it's even gone when the tires are at 90% tread. If you read tire reviews always make sure the reviews tested the tires after a few thousand miles otherwise the review is garbage. I remember reading a review is an auto magazine that tested the tires when they were new then at a tested again after 5,000 miles. The final test was at 15,000 miles. Even after 5,000 miles a lot of the performance advantages form the premium tires was gone and by 15,000 miles it was completely gone.

Got a set for my 2009 Volvo C30, they ride very smooth and better grip than the Yokohama's i had before, great price and look, would definitely buy again!
