Default 1998 V70 Tires

Has anyone had experience with Falken ZE-950 or Pro G4 tires on their cars. Have shopped around and these seem to be a good tire.

Have them on two of my cars and they are great on wet, which is my main thing in the NW.

Thanks for the input. Getting a set of ZE-950's tomorrow for $280 after $70 prepaid card. Seems like a good deal after shopping around. Went to a local dealer after shopping the chains.

You know, forums aside, when it comes to tires, I found out that Tire Rack's site is very useful when it comes to rating them. Not just their testers, but people who buy them put their reviews, I forgot if it's 0-10 or whatever, anyway, there are so many criteria they rate the tire, road noise, wet handling and braking, dry, snow, how fast they wear out, how do they fare over bumps, of course price, lots of info to help with the decision. Those Falkens got very good reviews, and I can attest to that as well.

Love the tires, haven't had any rain yet so I may have to go to Texas or somewhere. Any thoughts on Bar's Liquid Aluminum for a radiator leak.

I only tried to mend a radiator once. No more. When the time comes, I'd replace the thing and have peace of mind. If it started leaking, unless there was a hit, it means it's old, you fix here, it'll break there.
