I had a set on my corrado. They gripped well enough to get one rear tire up on hard corners.

Had Falken Ziex 912s on our BMW and they were awesome, especially in the rain or slushy snow/ice.

Falken tires
I have used them on my SC for several years. Great tires, the only problem is that having a flat pretty much ruins the tire's sidewall. At least they are not expensive! I especially like the way the sidewall is molded to protect the wheel rim.

I had Ziex 912s on my '70T. Good all season traction but a bit loud and rough. I had a set of their DOT racing tires on my Boxster that were really good in the dry.
I normally can get Bridgestones from my local Firestone store for about the same price, so I don't bother with the off brands. |

RT615 have a huge following in the sports car crowd, I think for autoX.

I have run Azenis rt-615 on my chumpcar for the past couple years, a good tire at a good price. As far as normal road tires I liked the Ziex 912 on my 944.

I am on my second set of Falken Ziex 912 on my daily driver. Very good tire. They do wear somewhat quickly and are not the best when worn.
They are not a full all-season tire for winter (sub 30F and snow and ice).

Good grip, low price, good selection. The autox'ers loved the Azenis a few years back. I think it was because they had good grip and low weight compared to other grippy tires.
