225/45 14 Tire Review Highlights

Falken FK452 rated 30% while driving a Honda Civic
Driving on a combination of roads for 8000 average miles
I got presauded from a local tire shop/ dealer to get falken tires from 2 choices of previous tire manufacturers I’ve used before and rated them them highly.
I carefully drove/wore them in as advised but they were noisy from day one and still very noisy
I drive 21 miles to work each way daily. The first time I drove the car when wet after 2 weeks of dry weather, it was like driving on Marbles and lost grip at slightest excuse
Swooping the tires Front to Rear hasn’t helped.
I bought 4 so it was a set of the same make and I have got these tires for the duration. I don’t trust them. I hate them. I will not buy falken tires again

Yokohama S Drive rated 91% while driving a Citroën Saxo VTR
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 spirited miles
Only had them on for just over a week, done a fair few miles on them and i like them. They are much better than my old tires which were cooper tires. The grip in the dry is great, when i turn the wheel the car follows, where as with my old tires it had a knack for understeer. In the wet they are still good tires and are responsive, and if it wasn't for my dodgy bald rear tire i would never have spun off! i would recommend these to anyone who is looking for a cheap sticky tire.
