The Ziex ZE-912 is an amazing tire.

Quiet, awesome all season, and a lot of traction surprisingly for all seasons.

They are great in ice and rain

The contis were alright, I liked my old KDWs better.

To the point that when I got the SS/TC I swapped em over

Can't always go by reviews.

I go by tread pattern, and have a decent understanding on what to look for in a tire that I want.

Contis are an alright tire, way better OEM than the Rossos. But the PZeros...are pretty good.

BGF needs to get with the times and make a new tire IMO.
