    Falken Ziex tires

    These are a great upgrade from my dunlops! Mine are 205/45/16 and now I only spin in 1st and have a little chirp in 2nd. They make little noise when pushed but I have 35psi in them and am rolling them a bit in the corners (they have reinforced side walls) so I want to try 40psi. On wet roads I can hammer it in 4th without spinning and with minimal spin in 3rd.

    Tread wear seems excellent so far. This is all on a 323 with a bpt at 13psi kyb gr2 struts and canuck motorsports springs (discontinued) with kyb "competition" strut plates. The car will take 90deg corners (curbed intersection of 2, 2 lane roads in a closed parking lot, same as most residential street corners) at 80-90 kph without a sound from the tires. On an autox course I almost had my lil bro (riding shotgun) almost slide into me out of the passengers seat. I guess he wasn't ready for how much better the grip is now?

    I didn't put this in the tire section as it's a review of a performance upgrade thus it's here.
