Falken ZE-912 for 2007 E350 Sport???

Hey guys, so I need new tires soon and I was considering the Falken ZE-912 to replace my OEM Conti Sportcontacts. Has anyone had experience with these on our cars? Is this a good or bad idea??? They are an all season tire which is what I'm looking for since it snows quite a bit there in NJ. Also, the price seems unbeatable but I don't want to sacrifice too much quality and comfort. Any input is appreciated. thanks!!

I have them on my BMW 5-series (e39) sport. They are (tires) at the end of life (~30k) and I will look for something else. Once they are new they were OK, but very quickly became loud, significantly lost grip and are bad in snow (not compare to snow tire but to other all weather ones) and rain. Sure they do not cost too much, but I would look for something else.
