Title: Tyres (again) recommendations
Post by: moredun on September 4, 2023, 21:22
My Toyo's on the rear are close to done and they no longer make them, (225-40-16)

Anyone have any issues using Falken ZIEX ZE310 ECORUN, also open to other suggestions as long as they are the right size

I have those Falken's on my PFL. Quite impressed with them. Although, all my wheels are 15".

A good number of owners have the ZE310.  No complaints about them.  If you look up tyre tests you'll find that the Hankook K125 usually beats it.  A few months ago the Falken was more expensive, do some research.  Likely the Toyo you've worn out will have soft sidewalls compared to either of the above.

they replaced my Bridgestone's. no issues from me  when raining and looking back in the mirror  you do see some spay from them  for other drivers to sort out ;D  ;D

Thanks for the replies all, so Falken's are now on my list. Looking forward I begin to wonder what might be available in the coming years  :(
