Falken FK 452 - User reviews

I didn't to enough mileage on these Falken FK 452s to make the review complete, but I can't complain. On dry it's OK, it's clear, but on wet I got pleasantly surprised. I drive pretty fast sometimes, and I'm not afraid to get into corners in the rain, or even heavy rain ;) As for their wear-off, I can't say much after 12 000 miles. So far, these Falkens are fine.

Great brakes, good handling direction, slightly accelerates (skid). Rife, especially in the corners. Consumption in the standard, the tag axle almost none. Safe, very comfortable tire only for those who need to have such a fast rubber.

Average quality tyre for road use, for calm driving, at more than 120 MPH the noise level is quite high.

They're loud and don't grip so well, but you can't expect more from tyres for such price. Previously I had factory-fitted Michelins and they were much better, but much more expensive, and the 2.0 HDI plus a heavy foot made them unusable in three summer seasons. I assume Falken FK 452s will last longer. Their grip is average - good for everyday driving.

Great tyres, I can't say anything bad about it! I also bought winter tyres with this company and I am very satisfied. I recommend!

Falken FK 452s are the first Falken tyres I bought, I've never dealt with tyres if this brand before. I was wondering why the price is so low (I bought a 205/50R17 tyre for about 65 pounds) and I can say that for such price they are unbeatable. They're as quiet at 120 MPH as at 50 MPH, They grip the road very well, both on dry and wet and what's more, they look great. I can recommend this model to everyone without any doubts.

After driving a distance of 25 thousand miles I have a very mixed impression. As for safety, these tyres can be exemplary, but when it comes to driving comfort, these tyres don't have such! I drive in 99% on motorways (Germany-Netherlands) and do over 4 thousand miles a month, my driving style is fast but steady - high speeds without sudden accelerating or braking. The tread is completely worn off, but it doesn't worry me. Very serious drawbacks of these tyres are: extremely fast feathering, resulting in vibrations on the steering wheel, high noise level, very hard compound (poor shock absorbing), a large increase in fuel consumption (more than 1 l/100km). Compared to the Uniroyal RainSports that I previously had, Falken FK 452 is a complete misunderstanding.
