I haven't heard anything bad about Falken tires.

Good luck with whatever you get. Did you get the ride fixed yet?

I guess if you're getting new rubbers,

you might as well get "Falken" Rubbers !

I own a set of Falken Azenis. If they respond similarly to the GRB's, you'll absolutely love them in dry weather. Can't say the same for when it rains since I purchased them a few weeks ago, and it hasn't rained in S. Cal during that time. As for noise and comfort, they're about average for a summer tire.

looks like no Falken rubbers for me. I won't be unprotected, though. I'll be putting on the ever popular Kumho's tomorrow afternoon.

Deezo, the ride won't be fixed until next month. The other drivers insurance company is very slow to deal with. I've gotten my own estimates but they still have to send one of "their people" out

I take it you sold your stockers.... Good luck with your new rims, I had a buddy that has the Falkens on his Max and he swears by them, $425 for the Set of 17s

Yeah, the stockers will be gone this week. I'm thinking about calling the dealers and seeing what the difference would be if I went with the Falkens. I know that people love the kumho's but the Falkens also seem to be highly thought of and the tread pattern is killer and I've heard they may be a little better in wet weather
