Probably go for these when I get my next set....are they worth it? Obviously they are performance tires, but can you get good sets for more normal cars and are they as good as they come across as?

Falken makes some great tires. I've never used them personally, but if I had an opportunity, I wouldnt hesistate to. The performance factor isnt something to overlook just because you dont have a performance vehicle. When all is said and done, the only thing that holds your car on the road are the tires. Undoubtably the most important aspect of any vehicle. The only downside to performance tires are possibly shorter tread life, and possibly not as good weather handling.

The Falken Ziex's hold up pretty well. They have higher tread life than Nittos, Dunlop, or Yokohoma, but I personally dont care for their tread pattern. They're not too aggressive looking. They are ranked as all season, and h-rated as well though. It's your call really lol, you cant go that wrong with a name brand.
