True!

I cleaned up my 15" Si wheels today and put them on my ride.

Since the ZE-512s don't have a lot of tread left, I was checking out replacements.

Here are two contenders...

Falken Ziex ZE-512 (source):

* 185/65-14 17.5 lbs
* 195/55-15 18.5 lbs
* 195/60-16 N/A
* 205/40-17 17.4 lbs


Falken Ziex ZE-912 (source):

* 185/65-14 17.9 lbs
* 195/55-15 20.4 lbs
* 195/50-16 20.2 lbs
* 205/40-17 22.0 lbs

Interesting differences!
