In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Japan (
Falken) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Italy (
Pirelli). Generally,
Pirelli summer tyres are slightly better rated (79%) than
Falken (71%). In this particular case, the Pirelli Cinturato (C3) has a better rating of 94% compared to 66% of the Falken ZIEX ZE320. Important for this comparison is also the
ADAC 2026 225/50 R17 test, where both the
ZIEX ZE320 and the
Cinturato (C3) were tested. See more mutual tests below. We also know where
ZIEX ZE320 is made - Turkey.
