Falken 912s and fed ss595 are usually the cheapest quality tires I can get

Tires is one of those places where I don't opt for "cheap". Inexpensive maybe, but not cheap

Haha that's why I put quality in there...there are way cheaper and way more "budget"

But falken 912 and fed 595 aren't crappy tires by any means...I'm runnin 912s on my car and my gfs subie..best bang for the buck

I ran the 912s for a while too and they are not bad. I'm a Bridgestone guy though. Currently running RE760s on both cars and may move to the new S-04 next time on mine.

Yeah, the higher models are overpriced. The 760s are not too bad though, especially since I got them when they had the rebate, so basically one tire free.

I do have to say the 912s were quite good in the wet.
