Falken ZE 914 - User reviews

Sort:
cole87
2.68
The car that my Falken ZE 914 tyres are fitted to is a 2008 Mercedes Vito 120, 205 BHP, rear wheel drive. Previously, I had Kumho KU31 tyres and I was very happy with them. They gave me good grip on both wet and dry. No corners were a problem, the tyres were reliable and had a nice visual look. With my driving style, they have lasted for 1,5 season. After consulting the helpline of Oponeo I was suggested to get Falken ZE 914 and advised that these tyres will be better at the same price. I tried them and unfortunately I am heavily disappointed. They are no match for Kumho when it comes to grip in the corners (they lose it slightly when coming out of the corner) and stability while driving. I just don't trust these tyres. For me, it's better to get Kumho or Toyo tyres instead of Falken ZE 914.

The conductor runs 914 Falken 205/50 / R17 bought about 1 month ago on the Internet. The parameters of the tire are satisfactory for me, although in mainly guided by zakupioe whether the tire has bead protection. Informed me of course ..... and here is a great disappointment bead almost no wheel is on par with the tire. I & compare with the previous tires pirelli same rozmarow. If somebody does not depend on wheels and has little power in your car is from poverty can buy because the price is affordable.

Tires bought suggesting that the opinions. I was looking for tires as a quiet and comfortable but unfortunately disappoint. At a speed of about 80 km / h and then from 110 km / h are starting to make noise (hum - a sound like an airplane taking off) in addition to vibrate and auto resonates during long driving at a constant speed. 200-300 km drive ends with a headache and really tiring. On old winter tyres and summer turanzach was much quieter. Founded on the new wheels, driven about 1000 km, two times were balanced, stiff suspension, no backlash. Reportedly had to arrange and get - nothing. I give to the complaint.

Never pile of tires on OPONEO. Falken trash. Tires beating fall into resonance around 90 km / h. After I exchanged zareklamowaniu 1 tire because the other 3 supposedly good. If I bought the place certainly gave me that crap.

Falken ZE 914 is loud and hard. It could also be better in the rain. In my opinion, Falken ZE 914 is overrated.

Tires are great. Prior to operate a Toyo PXT1R and I think that Falkeny are so much better especially on wet roads where Toyo were really dangerous. Looking for tires on dry and wet pavement, I recommend Falken! Tires have the size 205/45 R17. Uses them in a Honda Civic type ro 230 hp

Tire cheap and weak after a year of use (30tys km) has teething. I have winter tires I drive better brand which already 2 years and better exercise (no signs of wear and any damage). Falkeny are terribly uncomfortable and loud, I feel that the longer they are noisier ride. The tragedy, pity money. It is better to pay more and have peace of mind for longer.
