Does any of you know this tyre?
The size is 205 40 16.

What tyre could you recommend instead? Has to be the same size.

think i have had these before.
not a very good tyre tbh. quite a hard compound that lasts a while but doesn't give much grip in the wet or dry compared to other tyres.

Mines had falkens on it when I bought it but dont think the number was so high so prob not as good as these but they seemed to last ages but my tc ESP made a regular appearance but now with my rainsport 2s I struggle to get it to flash at me

 

[Kenned4200]

Okay.
So how are they in the dry?
I am really after a tyre that has as much grip as possible in dry, dont really care about wet.

 

[clio_luke]

not very good in the dry either to be honest. they are ok. but there are much better tyres out there. falkens are budgets to be honest. if you are on a bit of a budget try toyo t1-r's. good for the money. not great in the wet but plenty of grip in the dry. hankook v12's are supposed to be very good for the money too.

I heard those hankooks are very good that's what I wanted but were out of stock so got the uni royal rainsport 2s instead but my first choice was hankook

Ive got these on my 1.2 atm, in 195/50/15 and ive had no problems with them grip wise in the dry or in the wet.

I cant really find other tires in that size.

Or post me a link to a dealer with another good tire.
