Best tire on the market for the price !
Tire feels like semi slick ! Tons of grip on dry. This tire should be premium UUHP with the Michelin Cup 2 or Pilot Sport 4S, Conti SP6 or Bridgestone Potenza Sport. Very precise in corners, love fast change of directions, feedback is nice, will buy again.

I have found the Dunlop Sport Maxx RT XL tires very good, dry and wet both excellent performance for my light weight Renault Megane Sport Cup. Previous tires Continental Sport Contact 5 M0 XL and Avon ZZ3's, both good tires but the Dunlop Sport Maxx's out do both of these tires in handling, fuel economy and lasting far better, my driving habits are fast, hard braking and combination of town driving. Definitely a very good setup for my car and would recommend and buy these again. Suit my car well.

I replaced a set of Kumho KU31's with these FK452's on my 2007 Renault Megane sport about 2 years ago. The weird thing with this change in brands was the difference in width. The original Kumho's were 235/35 and when I went to replace them with the Falken of exactly the same size they were about 15mm wider and would not fit under my car! I had to settle for 225/35 size which was a little more expensive but almost the same width as the 235 Kumho's.
Other than this issue the tires were quite good on my car. All aspects performed pretty good of a tire of this price and they lasted ok too. Because of the factory alignment in the rear of my car and the "square" side wall of the 452's I had a bit more outer wear than I would have liked.
Also the side walls are very stiff!! One time I was sitting outside my car looking at it thinking one tire looked a little flat so thought I would check... it had 3psi in it!! and looked not much different to the others with 32psi.
I believe the 453's are a step up again but am tyring Kumho ku39's next.

I made a review for these Continental Sport Contact 5 M0 XL tires back in May this year 2013, I live in the UK. I have noticed from several reviews people from other countries/UK who have different cars and different driving temperatures, driving conditions would affect the tires on each car, giving different reviews. 1st review I covered from new 375 miles in my F1 R26 Megane, since then tires have done around an extra 3,000 miles. I can say they definitely suit my car, good fuel economy still remains the same, very low wear compared to previous tires fitted which was Avon's at that time. Handling in dry weather I would still say excellent. I don't push my car in the wet. Handling for the tire control is very close to some top of the range tires out there. I still recommend and would buy again the Continental Sport Contact 5 M0 XL tires. This is based on my driving behaviour and experience for these tires.

Recently changed from both front Avon ZZ3's due the Avons distorting on the side walls and uneven tread due to inner arm damaged, I have a light weight front wheel high performance F1 R26 Megane, its early days to give a full review on how these tires perform but so far dry handling pushed for the Continental Sport Contact 5 M0 XL tires definitely suit my car, very low road noise, corner handling very tight, fuel economy reduced compared to the Avon's, recently had some rain, standing water no aqua planning or sliding, I would say excellent tires in the wet. I will update further with the wear. So far an excellent first experience for Continental Sport Contact 5 M0 XL tires.

Ive got nothing bad to say about these tires. Ive used them for Touring on my 2009 Megane convertible from Midlands UK to Monaco, very comfortable and minimal wear. I also use these on my Renault Sport Megane 225bhp and they are fantastic.
I usualy use Continental sport contact 3 on the Meg sport but decided to give them a go, and I wasnt disapointed. The level of grip is fantastic and unlike the continental they dont wear quickly. The wet grip is also really really good, can push the car hard and I dont get oversteer and very very minimal undesteer in the wet. I will use this tire on every car I have for as long as they are avaliable.
Against other mid range tires at the same price, these come out top. I can comapre these to Falkens which wear quickly, and Nexens which give massive understeer.

Bought the car with these tires on from dealer. Looked O.K and drove reasonably in the dry. First time out when raining I had my 5 year old daughter in the car. I have never had to drive so slow to keep safe.
Next day I splashed out on a set of Goodyear F1 Assims II and what a difference. Well done Goodyear!!
LingLong are dangerous in the wet. I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU BUY THEM - EVER.

Absolutely awful tires, these were on my car when I bought it and I'm just about to replace them as I don't want to leave them on my car any longer. I've driven with them on for 6 months now and frankly can't find anything good to say about them at all, these are very poor even by budget standards. In the recent cold weather with temperatures dropping below 5 degrees, they are literally dangerous, no grip at all in cold, damp conditions even when driving cautiously. Also very noisy, wear is pretty good but seeing I'm too scared to drive my car in anger with them on, it's hardly surprising! Avoid at all costs.

Tire wear the only problem if you have a powerful car, oem with my RS250 works very well. A tire that one must try at least once in a life time....PS2 is better than the PS3
