I picked the Falkens because they were offered in the aspect ratio I required, a very odd 195/40/R17 profile which not many manufaturers produce. So far I've covered nearly 10,000 miles and I have around 3-4mm left across the tire (albeit I will need to replace sooner due to my tracking being out, and the passenger side wearing unevenly)
I can highly reccomend the Falkens as a fantastic mid-range tire with good wet and dry grip, noise levels and overall comfort.
