how long have you had the tires? you get a 30 day ride guarantee call falken up 800-723-2553 and tell them about the problems you are having.

The question you are asking is akin to asking: what would you rather have gonorrhea or syphilis? Any way you look at it it's still the clap - neither alternative is particularly attractive.

You guys crack me up. Why would the Falkens be rated so high and used so often if they were bad/crappy tires? Yeah, they have a softer sidewall, but there is no way you can compare them to the POS tires that come standard on these cars. I have the 512's mounted on my OEM wheels and before I got my 19's, I used them and now that they are only used for winter driving, I've been happy with them for the two seasons I've had them.
