Falken Ziex-912 vs Ziex-512 comparison?

I've been running Falken Ziex-512s on my '97 daily driver through two sets of tires and have been happy with them. Now I see that they have been replaced by the Ziex-912s. I did a quick search and found several comments stating that the 912s handle very poorly due to "softer" sidewalls. Has anyone here in Miataland made this switch or tried the 912s?

Thanks for any replies.

I also have ZE-512s and have heard the same... but discounttiredirect.com still sells the ZE-512s in both 195/50/15 and

185/60/14. they also have user reviews on thier site and one for the 912 is from a 512 user that sumed it up as the 512 was designed for handeling and grip and the 912 for comfort and noise.
