4.0
Overall rating good, but I was expecting a bit more. Sticks to the road on curves. It is too noisy on the wet - you can hear whistling.

Pretty decent tire. The price is reasonable and acceptable ,. As for my needs and the way of use;) Noise is not too great, for all kinds of surfaces fairly fun to exercise.

Tyres judge positively, especially in the snow. If icy roads are difficulties when braking and accelerating. In slush behave well, I'd say the 4, but no revelations. Generally, they are highly recommended for the price.

I would not have any objections to these tyres, if not their some noise on asphalt nawierzchcniach. Light begins to hum a little pow 90km/hi annoys me, especially since I have a well-soundproofed car that almost did not hear the engine.

I have never had such a miserable tyre So miserable snow tyres on in my life I had. The Skoda ride a Continentalach. The Renault had Semperity. Both directional. In view of the asymmetric Falken tyres are like rubber spikes to year. Falken in the snow is the worst crap I have ever met. Slips, does not hold, the car can stand bends sideways. People - avoid the rubber if you want to live!

On dry flawless, same on the wet asphalt. As compared with Pirelli Sotto Zero, under such conditions there was no fault anything. Sudden braking or fast bypassing obstacles always without a problem. The snow and slush, unfortunately, clearly worse. Fresh snow on the wet I happened to have a problem with you emerge from a small recess and nearly ended up sliding into a ditch. Snow level road gave cope, but they placed the 180 horses a bit too high expectations - TCS solve this problem easily. Durable tires for two seasons (about 20 tkm) and probably withstand two more if they were not stolen.

I have Skoda Octavia 1.9.. I was hesitating for a long time before I bought Falkens HS439. The seller temtped me to buy them but I was not sure about these tyres. These tyres are made only in Japan and it is for me a huge advantage. If it is about driving comfort I am very pleased with their comfort. They grip very nice in cornering and braking. I judge that product A+. Recommend.

I have this tyre since 2008. Today is the 4 season - about 50000 km done, this is her last season because tyres have 5mm longer and the winter's over. the tyre is great as a summer rain, snow and ice below expectations as the Japanese.

tyres run very well on dry and wet go straight to the rails and keep great direction, no noise, great in the inhibition of (dry and wet), an average of tight bends I think compared to the previous, long-lived - practically not clash (so I feel), I recommend buying ahead!

Welcome. On these two winter tires I drove, I live in London so that was driven route to Polish and back to the trip in the Polish mountains alps in winter and skiing in Livigno. After Mazury land of 1000 km per year on average. So far, I drove about 17000 km. I will say this tire good, decent stick to the road slush very ok, kopny snow satisfactorily-time I had to wear chains in the Alps but it's normal. my driving style on the average estimate pollination is not as stupid on the highway in the winter but the 130-140 can ride on them as compacted snow is fired up to 100km. Check with Parking in without a problem. Personally, I can not recommend Clincher. Earlier mialme black Fulda and was also ok, but what surprised me is a small fuel tank! I think that even leisurely two winters on them posmigam.
