Andres asked about Falken Tires...



Andrew asked about experiences with Falken tires...

In my days at Texas A&M, they had a Western Auto which (then) 
sold Falkens and other brands.  The Falkens were used by the 
locals as cheap street/auto-x tires, so I tried a set.  I would put 
them above no-name cheapies, but below any Dunlops I've ever 
driven.  They didn't last long and had considerable problems with 
following road seams near the end of their service life.  You can do 
better with any tire Dunlop makes, including the D60A2, which is a 
better tire and more widely available if you have a flat or tire 
damage on the road.

Falkens are worth what you pay for them - period.
