The largest and best-selling category, and Falken ZIEX ZE320 belongs to it.

For most drivers it is the safest bet: the tyre behaves predictably in the dry and in the wet and covers a decent number of kilometres.

I gave ze320 good score at first review(9.2). Now after 2000+ miles i have to reduce the score to (7). As we entered summer here in east europe, temperature of asphalt rise to 40 to 70 Celsius , ze320 started to act strangly and have reduced it performance by 20%!! Same corner i take allmost daly now i get OVERSTEER front and back and i am little dissapointed whit performance. I wont buy them next time. Definitly good tyre for normal eu summer but here whit high temperature of asphalt i dont reccomend them!

Very good impression, much better than my older Hankook Ventus Prime 4. Excellent dry grip and handling, very good wet grip. Best of all immediate response...

I haven’t experienced any loss of comfort after switching from Michelin CrossClimate tires. These tires perform better than the Michelins on dry roads. I just bought them recently, though. I’ll update my opinion after driving on wet roads and rough surfaces.

★★★★☆

First impressions about the tyre: After the Continental PC6 these tyres are incredibly comfortable. Much less noise and lower pitch of existing noise, what makes the feeling of the tyre noise level even lower. Smoothen the surface imperfections of the road way better. I hope they will keep this performance for a long time. These Falkens were 30% cheaper than the previous Contis, for the first impression, the performance is quite the same (with normal driving), but the riding comfort is much better.
The road feedback is a bit sluggish after the Contis, but nothing exceptional, It's good as well, but they haven't that tight, sporty feeling like the Conti.
I'm satisfied with these tyres. I got what I expect, even a little bit more. I will update my experience after some thousands of miles, hopefully with similar satisfaction.

Whit every new tire i test it by scraping my shoe against it to feel grip( laught as much u want :) )
And i can say, compared to my ex micheling primacy 4+ , there are extreamly sticky. On medium quality asphalt i pushed tyres hard whit speed over 120 kmh on extreamly steep curve. I am impressed and i can only say that i will buy it again. Saved me today from hiting another car whit 10/10 braking on wet. Noise is on par or even better then michelin. I bearly hear them! . Compared to micheling-excels in evrything! Corners i couldnt take whit confidence
, now i speed past it. Short life compared to michelin? One thought -i value better braking and cornering then tread wear.
Downside- they do use 0.3 more fuel coz ur driving faster :-) extreamly happy!
