I purchased '98 with Falken FK-04GRB. Wasn't to impressed at first but they ride quite well and car tracks very straight on highway. Not sure about wet/dry handling when pushing the car, however. The price sure seems great compared to alternatives (e.g. Michelin Pilot Sports, Pirelli P-Zero's, etc).

What's wrong with this picture? Any comments?

Rgds,

I had the Falkens on my 95 325i for a couple years and they were great especially for the money. I live in Seattle and they were great in the rain. No they don't have the ultimate grip in the dry, but unless your tracking your car that should not matter. They rode and wore well and my car was modified quite alot. The Kumhos would be their only competion at that price level. You did good, and if you have to race you can always get some R compound tires.
