Falken tires? Just wondering if anyone has used this brand? I've been trying to read up and shop around on tires because i need some new ones and these are fairly cheap and get some good reviews. I'm not a drag racer so just looking for something decent. Not to mention i have 4 kids, 3 cars, and a house payment so i'm kinda on a budget...haha. Any input would be appreciated.
they are a decent tire for a decent price. the ZE 912s are more for comfort whereas the FK 452 are for performance. but i would strongly recommend getting some BFG G Force Sports off of Tire Rack. they are very cheap on there, but great tires

I had the FK 452's on my old 20th AE VW GTI, when i mounted them i thought they would be the worst riding tire ever. They have a stiff sidewall, i actually sat on the tire, at the time i was 290 lbs and it barely moved, even picked my feet off the ground, and they didnt budge. Pain in the butt to mount, but after driving on them, found they were great. I didnt really have much road noise, and they had good traction. Id definetly recommend them.

i had the 451's on my car about a year ago and they run very narrow a 275 looks more like a 245.
they handled good but dident have any foward grip especialy when they wherecold or if it was below 60 out side.
i would go with a nitto or other brand like bfg or firestone.
