225/50-16 R16 92V Falken ZE-512 ZE512 Tires

I was looking at these for the fronts too but in the correct size.

I can get the rears for 172.00 free shipping.

The fronts are 152.00 free shipping.

Is it worth it?

 

I would say it would depend on what you are looking for. My guess is the rear 225/50R16 is going to be quite a bit narrower and the handling is probably not going to be nearly as good.

 

I might have wrote down the wrong numbers. The guy sent me a quote on both the front and rears for OEM replacement.

As far as price goes, is that good?

 

With free shipping, assuming those are the V rated tires, thats a real good price.

On Vulcan Tire, 2 205/55 and 2 225/50 comes out to around $350 shipped and on Edge Racing, its a little under $340 shipped (to me on the east coast. . .may be more depending where you live).

 

Basing everything on the factory S02's...
For the rears you are loosing .2 inches of section width and .3 inches of tread width. Diameters are close but off by .1 inches 24.9 vs 24.8
For the fronts you are loosing .2 inches of tread width. Diameters are close but off by .2 inches 24.8 vs 25
Treadwear on the 512's is 360 (UHP model)
Treadwear on the S02's is 140
