Nice looking car, polishes up nicely and you can't beat new badges!

I'd be interested to see how you find the Falken ZE 914's though, they are the worst tyre I have ever used.

Cheers mate, I've used the Falken 914's before on my old EP3 Type R and quite liked them. That's why i got them for the ZS. Already done 800 miles on them, on motorway, and tight twisty B roads. Found them really grippy in wet and dry. Low road noise, and just the right amount of flex in the side walls. They are the XL tyres. Thing is, we all drive differently so could be down to that. What didn't you like about them?

They were good to start with, then they just lost all grip. despite doing only a few thousand on them. What attracted me to them was the wet grip rating, which as I said was excellent to start with. Taking a sweeping left hand bend the front would just wash out! I lost confidence in them in the end.

I don't do a lot of mileage a year (I know I've done 800mile but was a trip away), so hopefully I'll get use before they go off.
