Falken ziex ze 950 tires
Anyone have experience (good or bad) with these?
They are available locally, the price is good, and the reviews I've seen have been positive.
Otherwise I'd go with Hankook Ventus V12 or Conti ExtremeContact DWS 06, but either of those would need to be ordered from TireRack, and while both are more affordable than Michellins or Pirelli's, they are significantly more than the Falkens.
Thanks in advance for your input.

I have no experience with the Ziex, but I’ve been running with Falken Azenis on the rears for 70,000 (!) miles and 30,000 on the fronts. They are exactly what I was looking for: good dry handling (wet is so-so), quiet, they wear like steel, and are pretty affordable.
Using the comparisons on the Falken site it looks as though the Ziex has better wet and snow handling, comparable wear, but at the cost of more noise. If the prices are similar, and you don’t need snow performance (Santa Cruz? – lol), you might want to check out the Azenis as well.
If you’re like me and your “ten-tenths days” are behind you, and all you want is great performing GT, I couldn’t recommend a better tire. I love these things.
