I was wondering if you can flip these tires from left to right wheels. I was speaking with a tire installer and he was saying that with radial tires it doesnt even matter and would not make a difference to flip them.

Thoughts?

i dont have the 452 but yes you can flip them and it does make a difference by increasing the mileage you can get if you have lots of negative camber.

i just had my fronts flipped today. basically you dismount, flip the tire, mount and balance it, and then put it on the other side of the car.

when the inside gets a little worn, just take them and have them flipped and the outside will become the inside. this will allow you to get much more even wear on teh tires and have them last longer.

It doesn't matter what tires you have, if you look, it'll tell you with an arrow if it's directional, and it may say "outside", meaning that wall needs to face out, so you won't be able to flip the tire even if you put it on the other side of the car. If it doesn't have an indicator on it, then you should be fine to do whatever you want.

You can flip directional tires if they are symmetrical, which fk452's are.

are fk452's just summer tires or do they fare ok in cold conditions too??

I wouldn't trust them in the snow and I have them.
