First of all, Falken FK 452s are sensational on wet. Secondly, they're impossibly quiet (shame on them), thirdly, balancing took almost no weights, I can slightly complain about braking on dry (or maybe I';m exaggerating) Generally, the Falken FK 452's a cool tyre, and costs good money.

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.

It is a great rubber that grabs as much in dry as wet. The only thing you have to heat rubber to get its temperature.

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.

Falken FK 452 is a hard tyre, very resistant to abrasion and what's more, it's very comfortable. My wife even noticed some difference because the tyres are quiet and you can feel the improvement in driving comfort. I recommend.

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.

Tires cool in terms of adhesion and appearance but the fact that they started strongly jag and make noise after 10.000 km me to them very discouraged. Certainly I'd not bought. Judge after 3 seasons and although still tread quietly on 1-2 seasons are changing to another because they can not be longer ride in the noise and the damage he promised to be good. Wyzabkowaly on both axes, despite correct settings of the suspension. Driven around 30k km.

Tire great road holding even with such a heavy car like the A8, but that's it. Generally hopeless tire as quickly wears out after two years to be thrown away, and the teething from the beginning. Loud, not comfortable, only for what is plus traction. For Conti SportContact 2 and Pirelli PZero can not be compared at all, there is nothing to save, better off buying or pirelli conti because enough to dużoo longer.
