Falken FK452 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 194 reviews

Owners most consistently favor the Falken FK452 for dry grip and value for money, with comfort and steering response also attracting more praise than criticism. Wet grip is less convincing: positive accounts outnumber complaints by about two to one, but a substantial minority lack confidence in the rain. Tread-life opinions are almost evenly divided, with roughly one in four owners describing disappointing wear. Noise is similarly split, with nearly as many finding it loud as quiet. Returning owners have varied experiences, so there is no consistent pattern of grip holding up or deteriorating as the tire wears.

USed Falkens on my cars for many years, FK452 is the best yet

Good price, excellent grip with progressive release when cornering hard

Can wear quite quickly when driven hard

Tried 451's on my daily drive (Omega) but didnt bother again as its a barge and the tires didnt help performance any

Use these on my Golf V5 and my TVR in both cases they are excellent and I will be using them again
