[s-cars] TIRES

[LL - NY]

Grassroots Motorsports seems to like the Falken Ziex 512 or 912 (whichever
of the two is the A/S) as a good performing all-season.   I have Kumho Ecsta
ASX on the Saabaru. They perform respectably enough, tho not exceptional,
although by the SofP meter, really no worse than my F1 GSD3's did.  Never
tried in snow, but had to deal with crazy temp swings around here, so went
A/S.  My biggest concern is wear, although I do beat the crap out of them,
and local folklore says that the pavement I spend 75% of my commute on is
notably tough on tire wear.
