Ranked #7 of 20
Finishing in 7th place out of 20 competitors, the Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun demonstrated commendable performance in a recent evaluation, earning a final rating of 'Good'. This tyre was particularly noted for its impressive safety margins in aquaplaning situations and dynamic dry handling capabilities, accompanied by short stopping distances on dry surfaces, which indeed made it the best performer in the dry handling discipline. However, its performance was tempered by a limited lifespan, which prevented it from securing a higher position in the overall ranking. Despite this drawback, the tyre's strengths in critical safety and performance aspects underscore its suitability for drivers prioritizing handling and aquaplaning resistance.

Ranked #6 of 50
The Falken ZIEX ZE310 ECORUN distinguished itself among 50 competitors by finishing 6th, achieving a notable final rating of 'Good'. This tire showcases its strengths by delivering an impressive performance on both wet and dry surfaces, achieving top marks for its reliable handling and short braking distances on dry roads. Its commendable performance extends to wet conditions, where it also secures good ratings in braking, aquaplaning, and handling, though it slightly underperforms in lateral aquaplaning. Despite these strong safety qualities, the tire does face criticism for its environmental impact. It demonstrates satisfactory longevity and wear but is critiqued for its weight which impacts its efficiency negatively. Moreover, its sustainability aspect, particularly linked to its production, receives a modest assessment. This comprehensive evaluation underscores its balanced capability on the road while drawing attention to areas for improvement in environmental and sustainability metrics.
