Falken Zeix 512 tires?

http://www.epinions.com/content_153338875524

Wondering if people like these? I've got a set of stock S4 TII wheels, which are 16x7, and i'm wondering what size tires i could fit on them. Those tires seem to be low profile, no real bubble, so I'm thinking I can't fit much over about 225's on them? I was hoping to get 245 on the rear, 225 in the front. Also wondering if I would run into any problems with having 245 in the rear, I have stock suspension. Think I will rub? thx

They're good if you need all-seasons, which they are. If you want dry traction, they don't have much going for them. If you like Falken, the only tire that comes in 225/50/16 is the ST115. Yes, 225 will fit fine. If you like the stock sizes, 205/55/16, you might want to look around for some RT215, which are discontinued, but some places may still carry them. These are very very good for dry traction. Otherwise, look for other brands, try Toyo's new T1R, it comes in 225/50/16, but will probably cost more.

well, i wanted the 512's initially, but found a good deal on Hankook Ventus R-S2 Z212, 225/50R16's. A set of 4 from www.discounttiredirect.com was $362 with FREE shipping .
