Petrolhead159 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I have just stuck 4 x Falken T110's on mine for £330 having had Bridgestones, not sure what they are really like yet as I have only done a few miles but started a thread expressing my views on them.http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/4030-changing-from-bridgestones-to-falkens/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david1972 Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 Has anybody run these tyres?......they seem well rated for grip and efficiency Hankook Kinergy Eco K425 205/70 R15 96T http://www.mytyres.co.uk/cgi-bin//rshop.pl?s_p=Hankook-Kinergy-Eco-K425-205_70-R15-96T&details=Ordern&typ=R-213686&cart_id=52203063.110.11270&ranzahl=4&Breite=205&Quer=70&Felge=15&Load=95&Speed=T&weiter=0&last_sort=Lable_1roll&Ang_pro_Seite=50&sort_by=Lable_DEX&Transport=P&dsco=110&rsmFahrzeugart=PKW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Had no problem with Hankook tyres I'd recommend them from when I have used them in the past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Used Hankooks many years ago - had no problem with them - it was sometime back though but heard nothing to say they have gone off the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petrolhead159 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 i believe that Hankook now supply all new VW's…i could be wrong though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david1972 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 Another cheaper option that seems well rated Nankang N607 205/70 R15 96H XL http://www.mytyres.co.uk/cgi-bin/rshop.pl?s_p=Nankang-N607-205_70-R15-96H-XL&details=Ordern&typ=R-173379&cart_id=18843824.110.22699&ranzahl=4&Breite=205&Quer=70&Felge=15&Speed=H&weiter=0&last_sort=tests&Ang_pro_Seite=50&sort_by=Lable_DEX&Transport=P&F_F=1&dsco=110&rsmFahrzeugart=PKW I'd heard of them back in the day I had my Qashqai, as one of the few manufacturer's to make the 18's it sat on. From what I can gather, feedback was mixed at that time. Anyone have any experience of these they'd care to share? Checked my tread depths on the Bridgestone's at the weekend and both fronts have about 4mm left, so time for more research yet ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david1972 Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 When I was in the dealers earlier this week I thought I'd check out what they are booting the new cars with.....turns out they are using Yokohama Geolanders. I assume that's either a price or performance decision by subaru... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I'm going with price, but thought they was good tyres when I used them before :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david1972 Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 Ok....think I've narrowed my next tyre choice down to 3 now....for the time being anyway...... Falkens @ 75 a corner fitted Yokohamas @ 78 a corner fitted Michelins @ 85 a corner fitted....my personal fave at the mo Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Some good choice tyres there I'd be happy with all 3 But after these set of Falkens I'd be happy to use them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
