Keep those reviews coming. Hearing a few good things about the Falkens and they are quite a bit cheaper.
Thanks
Falkens are great, and cheaper, but the Toyo's are worth the extra money. You won't be sorry with either one. Good luck

Who says "more better" and gets away with it?

I thought English was the language that we use here.....

I think I just got about 100 points STUPIDER reading the poor excuse for english....

"more gooder"

Dude, don't worry about tires and worry about getting a more firm grasp on the language....

I just got toyo-t1-r's and i am very happy with them. i cant comment on wear, since i just got them. the ride is smoother and much quieter. i paid 1030 installed with a tire warranty so for the price i am really happy.

i got 25000 out of my ponteza's so i am hoping to get atleast 30K out of these

I have run many autocrosses in street tire category and no one runs T1r's. Not sure why although I always thought they were a cheaper tire.

bestestessssssss....for the weight 23/25 front/rear for the stock 18s. Expansive tho.

I'd recommend Potenza Re-01R if you are high hp and the weight isnt all that big deal. They grip like nothing you have ever seen.

I just replaced my 18" stock Michelin PS2s with Falken 452s. The ride is great and handling seems to be fine but I haven't really done anything to "test" them. They do tramline a bit but not near as bad as other tires I've had on other cars.

The only thing that would concern me with the 452s is if I had aftermarket wheels. The tires do not have much (if any) protection around the lip of the wheel. Other than that I am completely satisfied with them.

The price was excellent as well. $566 for all 4 shipped to my door from www.discounttiredirect.com
