Better for what? The fastest wearing usually has the best dry grip. Feel is not a term defined?

Which parameters are you interested in? Durometer hardness, void ratio, self aligning torque moment, sidewall stiffness, Pneumtaic trail, lateral deformation,

Unfortunately neither tire has been deemed suitable as a company to be carried by Tire Rack so little scientific comparison data.

Honestly, I wouldn't recommend either. I don't know much about the Falken's, but I've heard more than once that the Toyo's don't grip as well as other brands. There are better tires out there for our G's.

What is your primary consideration? Price, performance, or treadwear?
Also, are you replacing OEM size or are you plus sizing? Primarily track or street/daily driving?

Michelin Pilot Sport2 and Yokohama ADVAN Sport are both available in OEM sizes if you don't want to continue with the Bridgestone Potenza RE050A. Ya, they're expensive, but you get what you pay for.

If you're plus sizing to 245 front and 275 rear and are looking for something cheaper than the above brands... I'd recommend the Nitto NT555. I had them on my '04 coupe and was happy with them/no complaints.
