Hey guys, I recently bought some rims (Rennen C10) and 2 of them are 20x8.5 et20 and the other 2 are 20x10.5 et35. I want a tire that has good handling and is quiet with tread that doesn't go away that fast, basically just want a good all-around tire. I know there's only some brands that make tires for 225/35/20 and 255/35/20. I think i decided on the Falken FK452s. Any good/bad experiences or any other tires you would recommend? It would be greatly appreciated!

I had those on oem 19"s and didn't like em, they trambeled when the tread was low and were kinda loud. I have 245/35/20 Nitto NT555 now and so far they have kept the tread and almost look new still. They're also quiet and stick to the road good. They just released a new all season tire that's supposed to be quieter and smoother on the road and have the added benifit of aysemetrical tread pattern.

Really? I've heard the complete opposite about the Falkens....I'll look into the Nittos.

Where are the pics?? I will be putting in my new set of wheels by the end of the week and decided on Hankook V12 Evo... I posted a thread on our Facebook page and had a lot of good feedback so I've already decided what to go with... My tires will have more meat though?? Going 245/35/20 front on 20x9" +35 and 275/30/20" on 20x10" +35 rear! My expensive wheels need good protection!! :bigthumb:

Falken 452's...

They start out great! But after the next 1500 miles they get way noisy.

If you have thirty days to return them, try to put a lot of miles on them over the next three weeks. You'll see...
