no effing way, i have only heard good things about falken 452s.. and now when this thread comes up im kind of skeptical cus im running them right now. sigh, i have 2 sets of these tires too =.=
Same here man. I only heard good until this. Just be cautious with these tires. I got them on too so I'm going to check on it every now and then to make sure everythings good. ;(
thanks for all the advice guys. I havent had time to look at the tire more closely but the good thing is that i still do have the reciept from when the tires were purchased. Ill contact falken and see what the deal is.
I honestly am pretty careful with my cars and check tire pressure and if my lug nuts are tight often so i can say that it wasnt neglect on my part. I dont even drive the car daily so its odd to me for this situation to happen. Anyways ill update you guys on whats up.
Also, In my experience Falken has always been a good tire.
I guess if your toes were off and you have a blow out like that it means their tire walls are either too ridge and does have much give or they were too weak. Tire walls are usually meant for compression and not torsional strain from rolling a few degrees sideways.
My tire guy said that a strip of the thread tore off of my 452's. Luckily nothing worse happened. I'm thinking about going with S.Drives next time. What do you guys think of those?
+1 on this my buddy was running 265 falkens on his 11.5's and they got sidewall bubbles and blew out. He eventually got some kumho extas and ran a 245 with no problems.

I had S drives and I REALLY liked them, but I liked the hankook ventus evo k110 better.
