Anyone know anything about Falken 452

tires? I am getting some new wheels and tires put on in the next week or so and the quote the tire shop gave me was a quote with Falken 452's I beleive. Does anyone know anything about these? I am not looking for a great tire that helps with speed and all that, I just want a good tire that doesn't wear too easy and looks good.

I see that you are pretty new to the site, however, use the search. You will find many reviews and opinions on tires. However I will help you out.

these are GREAT tires. As you can tell and will hear, many members on here are running Falken FK-452's. Great tire wear and aren't noisey. I would say they are the most used tires on here along with Toyo T1-R's

Great, thanks for the quick response. I got a pretty good quote from discount tire for the TSW mondello (20's) wheels on those tires...I think I just might be making a purchase tomorrow...

I have had them for about a year and a half and they have been excellent tires! I am going to get them replaced this weekend becasue they are are good and bald on the inside, but I drive a bunch and my G is dropped on NF210's. I have a quote for my (2) 245/35/20 + (2) 285/30/20 for $700 cash installed! That is a steal!

But, how is your noise level?? How many miles do you expect to get out of them?

Noise level was great, very quiet when installed, but because I am running them a little bald, I am getting a bit of noise, hence why I am getting new ones. As for the miles, I would have to say I got at least 20,000 miles off of them. I would have got more, but they are wearing tread unevenly, it's on the To-Do list! I would say you could get 20-25K easy

It is a killer deal, every other place I called was quoting me $850 at least! I am in So-Cal so we find the deals. It is this shop in San Gabriel.

626 698-1182, Ask for Donald! That price was a cash price I got from him. I will be getting them installed on Sat. Hope all goes well.

I've had a lot of good reviews from my customers. I think it's the best bang for the buck.

Why did you like them better than the Toyos, I have them now, might want to switch to the Falkens.

They got very noisy, they wear too fast, and they have weak sidewalls... but they do handle good in the rain though...
