Kate is amazing to drive even moreso than what I thought it was before.

100mph is effortless and smooth. grip pis amazing..


I installed Falken tires some number series......I forget. Extremely quiet and grippy.


Kate tracks straight and smooth.

Tac control off and my god the white smoke is amazing.

 

Yep, I have the same tires, the good thing about Falken tires are if are not satisfied return them for a full refund. You have 30 days. The other thing I like is that they x-ray every tire that comes off the line. At lease this is what aim told.

 

You are like a proud mother showing off her child with new shoes.Have fun with the new ride!

 

But ya gotta look at the siewalls and tell us exactly what kind of Falkens you got.

 

...i'll say FK452s?

 

I'm interested because the knock I read on the Falkens was them being noisy. Noisy tires on a vert is a bad, bad thing.

 

ZE512

Loud? NO, they are not. Not one bit.
I just drove back from Phoenix to Dallas through mountains hot cold sever rain. Excellent wet traction, all different types of road surface. Not a peep.
ZR rated.

 

only up to 18-inch, no wonder it's never come up as an option when I've purchased a couple sets in the past. looks like a good tire though.

 

I also like the Falken's, I had them on my last vette.
My jag came with Sumitomo HTR ZIII's on the rear and pirelli's on the front. I had to replace the Pirellis, they were old and had some flat spots. I used the same Sumitomo's on the front and once I was able to get the wheels and tires done on a road wheel balancer, am very happy with them.

 

I was seriously looking at these since my car isn't driven very much. Pricing is excellent, but the reviews on the Discount Tire website are terrible. Maybe I should just let the next guy pick his/her own.

 

majority of the bad reviews are coming from malibu honda saturn owners LOL

 

The ones that I have are the Falken's Azenis pt 722 A/S. Very happy with it.

 

Mine has Dunlops on both ends - fantastic and quiet,
Roy.

 

I just got a pair of falkens on the rear, I hate them, I can hardly maintain control.
Not recomended! Mich. Pilots, or Conti-contacts much better!

 

That is why ceberus66 loves the white smoke. Looses traction too early

 

What kind and size of Dunlops Roy ??

 

No lateral hold, sleepy rebound, I feel like a teenage drifter. I guess you get what you pay for. A joke of a tire.

 

LOL 600hp NOS injected street terror?


My bet is there bigger problems then a set of tires.

My Falkens on the front lasted 8000 miles. then the outside started to cup. (less the 15k on entire new front end, shocks bushings etc) Seems a common problem on the tires I had and Discount tire replaced them. I went with Hankook V12 evo. Just went to Dallas to Phoenix and back 2800 miles and smooth ride great grip etc. Rear Falkens are still in great shape.

 

tokyo drift!
For sure, the car is in top shape, and it's not my first bar-b-que.
I have no gain for my sour review.
oh well, I'll burn through them soon enough.
Cheers!
