Tire opinions?

Post by Bwill9886 »

With the ZE-912's, who has used them in the snow? How'd they fair?

I was looking at them, but most of the reviews I found were pretty average so I kept searching. They would be cheaper than the Kumho's for me.

I've used them in the snow, really impressed. As long as you know how to drive your car in the snow they'll be fine.

That's exactly what I needed to know, thanks.

the 912s were supposed to replace the 512s iirc.

Kumho ASXs do okay in wintery conditions but I've definitely seen better, even from the UHP A/S segment.

My last set on the Prelude were 912's and I really didn't care for them at all in the winter, even in the rain I liked the 512's WAY better. The 512's also lasted me a little over 4.5 years.
