Falken vs Michelin

Just wondering peoples' opinions on the comparison. Also haven't really seen anyone with A-Spec suspension say they have Michelin's so...

Do a search here in the forum for owner's reviews on these tires. They're both excellent choices. Michelin has the brand name recognition, and the Falken 512's (Made in Japan!) were the top rated high performance all season tire by Consumer Reports and will cost you about ½ as much as the Michelins. After 3200 miles, I swear by them.
