there is alot of discussion on these and there new replacement tyres something 912's i think and can gather they are very good tyres for the price and i'm deffo getting the 912's when my tyres need changing.aslong as they are either 225/45/r17 or 215/50/r17 then they will fit no bother at all.

Good tyre? Apparently so. Equally as good as a lot of premium brand tyres by all accounts.

Good price? Depends - what did you pay for them?

Goodyear Eglae F1's can be had for about £80 each, so I would hope you paid a lot less than that!

had 4 of the falken FK452 's fitted on mine some weeks ago and no problems, not bad in the wet either and sorted my slight wheel wobble out in the process!.

i use falken fk452's on my 19's, have done for past 3 years.

never had any problems with them.
excellent in the wet and dry, not very noisey either, and they last a fair while.
I buy my tyres from camskills.com (i think) for £90 each and then they are fitted for £10.

I think Falken have realised they have been losing out due to the demand for their tyres. The 18" 225's I priced a couple of months ago have now shot up in price by £20 each!!! They were £69 now £89!!!

I like them at £92 each for 235 40 18s they were lots cheaper than goodyear which i found wore out far to quickly for the grip they had.

getting my f452 from tyre traders direct, just under £150.00 fitted

I've had them on the rears since last November & I like them a lot, for the reasons stated above. I'll be putting them on the front when the crappy NCT5's are shot.
