    I am using Falken 452, it has better performance in wet condition.

    I've had them on 3 vehicles. Quiet and good wear for everyday driving. Great tire for the $.

    (however, they are all season tires - not summer tires.)

    I ran 512's on my Protege5 and 4 of my buddies cars, I ran RT-615's for racing, i have FK452 on my 2006 Subaru STI and I work for a shop that sells the 912's.

    They are great tires

    With Falken you seem to get more than you pay for. With some other brands like Continental, you seem to get much less than you pay for.

    Then again I've only either used Michelin PS2s, or some sort of semi-slick or just complete crap tires. Either that or my expectations are way too high.

    The only Falken tire I've ever liked was the ST-215. It's successor the RT-615 is not as grippy in my view and seemed to get greasy even quicker.

    With Mich, you get more noise and less tire tread than you expect.

    Falken's are really good, I have the Ziex and they rock.
