love em.. I have FK-452's... 20"...

they grip very well.. I am running 275's in the rear and 255's up front..

That seems to be a great price... If you can get a good deal go for it.

I had a set of Falken Ziex ZE512's on a Mazda 6. They had horrible wet and snow traction. They did have a cool euro tread pattern and awsome dry performance. Just a FYI!

You get what you pay for. Falken's are cheap, not better.

Clearly you've never driven a car with Azenis...there is a reason autox'ers that have to stay on street-legal tires love them

I run the RT615's on my audi and gti. I love them, but they are crap in the snow. I will be running the FK452's on the mustang as I can't the RT615 in a 20".
