I need new tires and I read that a lot of people have the Falken Ziex ZE-512. So I went to www.tires.com and checked them out. They also had the
Falken Ziex S/TZ-01. The Ziex S/TZ-01 are $5.00 more. I just wanted to know which one would be better for Chicago year round.

 

I've had the 512's on for about 2 weeks now....
and I'm very content with them.....perform well in snow and rain- I recommend them to anyone

 

It's hard to say what would be better. The 512 has a 30000 mile warranty, V rating.

The Z-01 has a 50000 mile warranty, H rating.

The Z-01 has 1/32 inch more tread when new ;-)

I have the Z-01s, and like them very much
