The 912 is the newest version of the 512.

I run ZE-512 on my DD and wife's car. It's one of the cheapest from Discount Tire and I just put 3rd set on my DD recently. They are pretty good, but I have one complaint. Original tire on my wife car was 225 Yokohama. I put 245 Falken 512 and widths are almost same. I expected 512 to be wider since it's 245, but I didn't see much difference.
