during my research, on here, of the 452s, many who stretched them incurred some form of bubbling...:thumdn: yet another reason why i was dismayed...and i dont even run stretched.

i had 451, it stretches pretty ok. had 452, it was on the loud side, and i didn't have it long enough to tell if there were any issues.

now i have toyo t1r stretched on my wheels and i like them a lot. and i also run on pretty bad camber, i literally use bout 10% of the tire only, and yet it rides pretty good and not noisy

What's sad is that my OEM bridgestones aren't suppose to last long at all, but they're outlasted 2 sets of Falken tires i had. My bridgestones are still in the rear!

My Falkens on the freeway: "Whom whom whom whom whom WHomwhOhom"


It's pretty embarassing because my passengers expect comfort and quietness

Now you can slap them on some car and do burnouts without feeling guilty. I'll finish them off for you

I had falken and they are a waste of money now i'm running nexan n3000 and they feel better and wear better than the falken plus they are priced better.

I know a lot of people run the Exclaims with no complaints. But another tire to look at is the Nankang NSII great tire thats cheap.

Falkens are the biggest scam ever conceived. Bernard Madoff, Falken, and AIG should all merge together. They pretty much use glue stick to put their sidewalls together. Like GSteg, my Bridgestones (RE050s) with a dismal 140 treadwear rating outlasted my Falkens.

I was about to jump on some 452s, but now after reading this i think ill pass.

When you say toyos are a good value, which ones would you recommend?

I just purchased brand new Falken 452's for the front and rear and now I read this! I'm glad I purchased the extended warranty. I thought about spending the extra on the T1R's from Toyo, but went with the Falkens with hopes of landing a sponsorship with them down the road? It's only been a few day's with the tires, so I'll see how they hold up? They are quiet because they are new, so let's give them a few thousand miles?

Glad I ran into this. I have them on my IS300 and they are really loud, especially on the fronts. I am having wear issues on the outer edge of the tire on the driver's front and have had the alignment checked twice, but now after reading these posts, I'm just thinking it's the damn tires.
