Glad youre alright!

@blue: iv been using Falken for over 7 years on my last 3 cars and have had 0 problems, like VQ said the tire does seem like it was used with improper air pressure looking at the worn sides and the camber wear is obvious too so this could have happened with any tire.

The 452s are one of the most popular performance tires due to thier great price and performance and last a good while too. My tires are now almost gone and i have already purchased 452s again.

Falkens are good tires, they just get noisy as they wear down

Thanks! Yea i know it was pretty much my fault for allowing this to happen. I'm going to get my TMPS on my next set.

Yup, I agree with cool_year and E-Ticket Ride. FK452s are decent tires with VERY decent price. I can't wait to try out their new 453s!!

Wain, just remember to flip them once in a while. hahahaha

or... just ride on rims like you said. Again, thug life. lol

How are they in comparison? How about price wise as well?

Thanks man, but this problem is a result of low tire pressure which is my fault. I'll have to keep a closer look if i'm not running TPMS. I know i won't be trying Falken next, so i'll give Hankook a shot.

the v12's are cheaper, handle better in the rain but a little less in the dry

Much quieter tire

Not sure about V12s being cheaper... Hankook's price went up TWICE since the beginning of this year....

I used to be able to get a set of 245/40/19 and 275/35/19 for $600 mounted, but last time I checked a month ago, they wanted $760. -_-

Do you have any hook ups??

so do the rest

Bridgestone, Toyos, Vredestein.
Any tire I tried so far, gets quite louder once it wears down.
