GreenXR6T Donating Members 630 Member For: 19y 6m Gender: Male Location: NSW Posted 05/07/07 01:39 PM Share Posted 05/07/07 01:39 PM I've got Falken FK 451's, done 10,000k's and the fronts are stuffed, worn on the both sides of the tyre as though it was underinflated. Plenty of tread still left in the middle.I run 245's and 275's so I can't rotate them.I ran 40psi in them from new till it got so bad I've now got 50psi in them. They are illegal and I'm not too impressed, 10,000k's is sweet F.A. for a tyre. A wheel alignment was done a week before I got them so that wasn't the problem.Think I'll go Toyo's next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are quite grippy for the price and will last longer than the Falkens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are quite grippy for the price and will last longer than the Falkens.I don't think the Falken FK452 has really been out long enough to judge how long it lasts.It actually has a higher treadwear rating than the Hankook K104 so theoretically should actually last longer.

These are 245's all round. I dont really know enough about the other tyres to do a comparison with other 19" tyres though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any opinions on the Maxxis MA-Z1 as I can get these for $245 fitted (245/35 19"). Some mates own these and say they are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
