total shoot.

had them once (not my choice, were on a car i bought)

have had toyo proxes for the last 2 years, recently got uniroyal rainsports. i thought the proxes were good, but the rainsports are leagues ahead! its not till u get a chance to try different tyres that you realise how much difference they make! after all, its the only part of the car in contact with the road, and worth spending a bit more just for the safety reasons.

I have 4x Falken ZE512s in 195/55/15 size, they seem good to me?

Mind you, I only have standard 15" Vauxhall alloys on my Astra, so no point getting super dooper tyres for them to be honest.

Definitely

Falkens IMO are ok for a budget tyre I suppose, but as Icy said they are completely rubbish in the wet. I've got Falken FK451's on my car, but am changing soon for the fact that I need a better quality tyre purely for safety reasons.
