Not in stock yet, but a little cheaper at Vulcan Tire.

Can't wait to see some reviews on these.

thebarber · 03-26-2010, 11:19 AM

from what i read from some mustang driver guy online yesterday, they're better than the old 615's...more grip, etc

i was REALLY wanting to pick up some 195-60-14 615's from discount tire....went to buy yesterday and find they're out of stock...EVERYWHERE!

so, r-comps are in the mail

You mean the review from the paid "Team Falken" drift driver? Yeah. I'll wait for some independent review.

Star Specs are available in 14" sizes now, btw. But... R-compounds will work, too.

ya, i guess that was the review....just skimmed it

good to know star specs are in 14", but not that much difference in price than the 615k's

buying used r-comps....itll be more than enough for the amount i race...

Replaced my fronts last week with these. Had a local tire place price match the first tire since they thought it was the same tire, ($71) although the second one they caught so it was $101.

Just daily driving so far, so no idea yet how they stack up with the previous 615s.

I'm sure these tires are going to be good. Don't you guys think Falken wants to take back the low budget high performance tire market it's almost responsible for creating? I have Direzzas now and LOVE them, but there was a day (8 years ago) when all i used were Azenis.

I'm due for a new set of tires so I'll give them a try and let you guys know how they feel.

What are the advantages of the 615K over the 615 regular?

I loved my old 615's for a good ST tire...

aeipee13 · 03-26-2010, 06:23 PM

It's basically a compound change but from the looks of the new pictures they change teh tread alittle too.

Here's Falken's propaganda for what it's worth..

I like my current 615s quite a bit. Looking forward to what folks say about these.

If you guys like your regular 615s, you should check out the RE-11s.

These 615Ks are supposed to be VERY good. But the price is keeping me away.
