New Tires

Intheknow · 12-30-2008, 11:37 AM

I picked up a screw in the left rear tire that caused it to go low and I didn't realize it was low, accelerated to 70 on the onramp and the tire went bad. I pulled over and pulled the tire off and it had entirely busted on the inner sidewall. So I went to the Firestone garage to get a new set of Potenzas and he didn't have any in stock. They are pricey numbers too. I came back to the office and got on Discount Tires dot com and decided on some Falken FK 452 tires. I'm replacing all of the tires, makes more sense that way. The rest of the tires were at under 50% anyway.

Has anyone else had experience with Falken FK 452 tires?

452 is a decent good tire, but I dont think it as good as PS2 or Eagle F1..

You get what you paid for.. but 452 def. good tire

I used them for about 6 months and they gave me no problems. Comfortable ride! Price is not so bad either. Here's a pic of them.
