I'm going to be buying some new rims/tires soon and using one set as my winter tires and one for summer tires.

I'm split right now between these two tires, though, the difference in cost is $11/tire more for the neogens.

I like the neogens because of their uber agressive look, but I've heard good things about the Ziex.

What do you guys think?

 

these are going to be your summer tires right?

the ziex is a nice sporty touring 3 season tire, and it will last longer than the neo gen. i LOVE the looks of the neo gen, but have not heard to much about them.

judging by their speed rating, they will probably grip harder and have higher limits, but be louder and not last as long.

the ziex will grip great for an all season tire (i have these) and it will last longer and its notoriously quiet. but it wont give you the abosolute best peformance.

since you have a dedicated winter tire, maybe the neo gens? i'd just hate to suggest the ziex and then have you be dissapointed with the performance. they are not all out performance tires, just really sporty and quiet touring tires.
