FYI, Tires rated M+S

I have been running Falken Ziex ZE 960 A/S tires and I am amazed at how good they grip in both wet and dry conditions. They are 3 yrs old and will likely need replacing by the end of their 4 th year. My FiST has aftermarket 16" rims and the tires are a 205/50 R16. The handling is as good as the 40 series tires on the 17 inch rim, but the ride is soooo much better. The 40 series tires on the roads I have to drive on in the interior of British Columbia Canada were just too harsh. Best mod I've done for my FiST. I will likely buy these tires again.

When I bought my FiST new back in 2019 I tried to take the dealer into a swap for some 16 inch rims and that was no go. As a result I now have a full set of the original factory rims and tires in my basement with 1 week of wear on them while I waited for a set of 16x7 inch rims from Summit Racing. Tires are Firestone all seasons and I am not going out to my garage to check the model because it's just too cold.

Are you happy with the 16 inch tires compared to the 17's
