HadeS Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I think we all need to have a proper driving lessons in very bad weather to get use what to do when control is lost. I have my lessons taken from driving in snow and I do think it would be good for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesy Posted December 8, 2009 Author Share Posted December 8, 2009 I can believe how good these fk452's are. Even in the awful rain we've been having they stick to the road like sh!t on a stick. Well impressed!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Poor grip in the dry imo but i agree they are good in the wet, i have them all round on mine now for the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far i've found them perfect in dry and wet mate, but then i guess i dont have 730 angry horses trying to escape thro my back wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I can believe how good these fk452's are. Even in the awful rain we've been having they stick to the road like sh!t on a stick. Well impressed!!! Have been saying it for years now, prefer them to Goodyear F1's. I think Jamie's just spoiled himself with R888's, anything is gonna seem shit with that much power after using track day specials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I found the toyo T1R's a better allround tyre but could not get them when i wanted this time so went with the falkens again, i would use the R888's all year but they split in minus temps ive read. http://marktg.toyotires.com/file/tirestorage.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Falken FK452's are brilliant. I have always used them (until I bought this new sup so I am just using what is on it until I need a new full set), before they existed I always used Falken FK451's. Brilliant shoes in my opinion.

SimonT Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I heard last time i bought some that they are stopping production on the FK452's shortly and only selling the ZE912 which will be their replacement the only difference being is that the newer ones have a lower speed rating. But Falken are still selling them on their website so im am yet to beleive this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
