well, the reason i was looking into es100 was because i heard that it takes standing water better than the azenis. To me quality is more important than the name brand. so anything that is worth the money (cheaper the better) will be perfect for me. im a student so money is on the edgy side. hey George, im interested in the falken ziex 512. how much and how long do they last?
