Dry Handling - No.1
Dry Braking - No. 2
Wet Handling - No. 1
Web Braking - No. 3
Straight Aqua - No. 4
Curved Aquaplaning - No. 7
Comfort - No. 4
Noise - No.3
Rolling Resistance - No. 5

Overall ranking - No.3
Behind 1st: Pirelli Cinturato C3, Continental PremiumContact 7

Shocking results - Michelin Primacy 4 only manage to get No.5 spot.
Thus proven some mid range tires manage to perform more better results than premium tires.

But Falken brand seems no longer active in Malaysia, 15-20 years back they're aggressive, I still recall we used ZE322, ZE326, and ZE912 for a few family cars due to cheap.

Official disty only, most tyre shop no longer carry.
Their price no longer competitive, gone are day their pricing like current China tyre.

Example B40 people like me looking for those RM200/pc tyre for 215/45/R17 or 205/50/R17 size, been surveying hard last year and call those FB shop carrying Falken tyre, their price is like local Toyo range, around RM300 if I recall correctly.

Luckily found Shopee got promo Goodyear EfficientGrip at RM120/pc, clear stock for 2021-2022 tyre, quickly bought that

Yes, that why i highlight most people only go for cheap budget or direct premium. But usually i found middle range is the best value:performance ratio, Falken for me is quite similar to Hankook tires. BTW Hankook in Malaysia market also still very value as consider mid-range, oversea market Hankook actually already consider as one of the premium brands same as Michelin.

BTW there is no issue in getting Falken tires if your interested. Just reach to those official distributor highlighted.
