Comment:
These have proved to be excellent value tyres and well used on a heavy,performance car.(second set) I will be replacing them with the same. There is a certain amount of road noise due to the tread pattern, which by the way, looks quite good. That is petty, I know but the tyre has to look good as well if you take a pride in your car. And no, I'm not a boy racer, I'm 68 but still look back at my car when I park it up. Sad or what!

Comment:
I bought 2 Falken FK452 275/40ZR17 & 2 Falken FK452 225/40ZR17 for my 2001 Porsche 986 Boxster. I had been running a Falken ZIEX ZE-912 195/55-16 on my GL1800 Goldwing for a number of years and was impressed with ride quality, build quality, & most of all its good adhesion. The tires on my Porsche are phenomenal. My p-car is a 150 mile per day daily driver. Lot's of twisties getting from the coast to the interior everyday. I do triple digit speeds on them daily. Can throw them into corners at 80-100+ on dry days and the same turns at 80+ with pouring rain. I love these tires! And when I think of the $ saved from buying a much more expensive tire, I am even more pleased. Besides Dunlops, these have some of the best adhesion out there IMHO. I believe the FK-452 is discontinued. I look forward to my next set of Falkens.

Nice look but the wear wasn't what I expected
