For me, the Falken FK 452 is a very good tyre. It's much cheaper premium-class tyres and I think it has comparable parameters. The tread looks good, and that's one of the reasons why I recommend it. A ne wone looks really great and has a lot of tread so I think it will last for a few seasons.

Due to the fact that the tire has been repeatedly assessed, I will focus on two aspects: [255/35 ZR19; 272 hp; quattro] 1) wet grip is poor. For normal driving, a slightly higher profile, sure enough. The loss of traction during dynamic driving occurs abruptly and without prior communication. Extremely sensitive to dust / dirt mixed with water in the early stages of precipitation. 2) Depth Edge protects the rim and is symbolic for the specified above absolute size too small! For 6 years driving cars with wheels 17 and 18 inches NEVER happened to me even scratch the rims, not to mention the major abrasions. With these tires "managed" I scratch / wipe all 4 and it twice (after the winter wheels were sandblasted and powder coated - now look like before blasting) ...

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.

So far they have gotten me out of several dangerous situations but if it wasn't for ESP, the tyres would be helpless. When combined with ESP, the Falken FK 452 is a very safe tyre. They're a bit too loud, but their oveall quality compensates fot it. I used them on snow for a bit but there is nothing to talk about - they are summer tyres and have no chance even against the worst winter one (at least I think so because braking on these tyres with ABS switched on in the snow was terrible). But in summer they're good. My rating is a B+.

The tyres are generally good, they're quite soft and elastic and so their wear-off is not so low, either. It's better to avoid rough concrete edges :-), They provide good driving comfort, they're quiet and have good grip. Overall, the Falken FK 452 is a "good quality for a good price" tyre. And it has exemplary appearance :-)

As for new tyres, they have good grip on wet. Unfortunately, as soon as they wear off a bit, you must be very careful when driving over the puddles because they lose contact with the road. In heavy rain sometimes it felt like driving on snow. They grip great on dry, even when worn out, they don't make the car swerve and don't vibrate... Definitely much better than Toyo T1-Rs, but they're slighly worse than Yokohama AVS Sport V102s.

I drive a 4WD car and these tyres are really good, even when driving aggressively they grip well in the corners .Of course, these tyres are not for very demanding fans of tuned Golfs...
