lowerst also michelin xm1 185/65-14 also ard rm195 fresh from factory~ 

falken Ze912, but only in size of 185/60R14, dont know it available in 65 series or not.

if compare with sound level i can say falken > goodyear

if you compare goodyear NCT5 with falken Ze912, definitely falken Ze912 is better, i havent use michelin Xm1 before, maybe they are the same

falken ze912 is more silent and perform more better than NCT5, at least when running on Ze912, i can hear other passenger conversation while driving 120km/h on highway, if NCT5, my ear drum damaged

Ze912 is consider mid end tyres lar, not very good for cornering and extreme driving, grip in wet are not that good too if compare to higher range tyres.

if you have a more aggressive driving styles, this tyres not that good for you.

let me share my experience, that day i was coming out from my college and driving home, maybe i overinflated my tyres, i try once to drive aggressively, when i kena those man hole the tyres skid a bit, but luckily still a new tyres, and then i go around a small roundabout turn, hit a man hole again and skid a little, but never suffer understeer, that time during the roundabout i almost cant brake in time, so i switch to L (gear 1 for automatic transmission) and the RPM was around 4.5k that time, maximum torque

u may try continental cct1...
it quiet and quite grip too during dry or wet condition (for normal usage)...
definitely better than nct5 and turanza...
but for falken ze912... im not sure as never use it before...
