Fantastic grip and pretty good in the wet as well.Just a bit noisy on the highway but that's the compromise with a semi..Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_John_ Member 287 Member For: 14y 4m 18d Gender: Male Posted 26/12/10 10:55 PM Share Posted 26/12/10 10:55 PM Falken FK 452. You can get `em for 300 or less each they as quiet as a 19 inch tyre is ever going to be and seem to grip under any conditons I encounter.Much better than the marangoni mishaps I had on previously.

If you have a first time tune, it's gonna be almost mandatory to factor in another grand for newer better tyres than the OEM ones if you still wear them. I did a bit of research and was leaning towards the Falken FK452 but found the F1 Assymemetrics I could pick up for same price after we reached parity with the US dollar for some reason (don't know why because I thought most tyres were made in China! )Anyway, good luck in your search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grip and longevity for my power levels and fantastic for the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
