Ive sold quite a few sets of the 912s. My dad rocks them, and a close friend has them on his STI swapped Legacy. IMO, they are a decent intermediate tire, they ride extremely well, and they are quiet

The NeoGen on the other hand is what I would call a tuner tire. It has the tread design of a intermediate/track tire, almost like the RT-615s, or the Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec, but they have the compound more like an all season touring tire. I would liken them to neat looking tinker toys.

What do you plan to do with the car? If you are looking for something cheap and sticky, look in the Falcon RT-615s or the Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Specs. Both are great tires, and they handle incredibly well for the price.

If your in it to drift, you will have to wait for someone else to add advice, for I have none.

If you are just looking for a decent all season tire, I would go with the 912s, you wont be disappointed.

I love my 912s. I had neogens on my civic and they weren't bad but my 912s hold better imo.
