Falken Ziex ZE-502 M+S Tire Review & Rating

Developed for performance all-season driving, the Ziex ZE-502 M+S is one of Falken Tires more popular performers. Designed for drivers of all types of sport coupes and sedans, the ZE 502 offers H, V or Z-speed ratings, and M+S rating for driving in all types of weather conditions.

Dry surface traction and cornering grip are enhanced through the silica tread compound and directional tire pattern. Dual straight rib grooves increase tire stability throughout the speed range.

When the roads get wet or sloppy, the tires wide center groove and multi-sipes aid in evacuating water from under the tread and reducing the risk of hydroplaning. Falken has given the tire a randomized tread pitch sequence, which provides for a more quiet ride on the highway or around town.

Inside the tire you will find twin full width steel belts with jointless cap layers for added strength and durability at higher speeds, as well as improved tread wear and a better overall ride quality. Falken also features a 30,000 mile treadlife warranty, which is very good for high performance tires.

Pros

• Dry and wet traction are both very good 
• M+S rated for all-season conditions 
• Minimal road noise and very comfortable 

Cons

• Treadlife has been mentioned by a few owners
