The New Falken's 512's are supposed to be pretty good. I had the older style Falken's and like them very much for the price.
Just wondering what price you found for the new 512's, because these are the two tires I am trying to decide on myself...

SUMI's suck. Spend the little extra you'll be happy you did. I have the HTR+'s and wish I would have spent more on nicer tires. Amost all long term reviews on the HTR+ are back on tirerack.
HTR+ starts out as a good tire, but after 5-7k it's a POS. And the treadwear rating is a joke. Lucky to get 20k out of them.
