Thanks for your worthwhile comment.
Of course you can show proof that you have tested a set of FK452's and an 'expensive' tyre back to back on a 350z and have factual, not subjective, evidence that the expensive tyre significantly outperforms the Falken?
In this application, I was a true sceptic and was proven wrong.
When it comes to spending money, I wouldn't be described as a tight arse BTW.
I've had 452's that I unfortunately inherited on an old 330i years ago, I replaced these with Michelin and the difference was night and day.
On my last car (rwd, lsd, 510hp) I had standard fit Dunlops that were terrible, a fellow owner replaced his Dunlops with whatever the current Falken is expecting an improvement, they were just as bad as the Dunlops in the wet but with no bite in the dry either.
Then when you look at the tyre tests they perform terribly. I simply can't see why you'd buy them over the best Michelin, Goodyear, Pirelli other than to save money.
If anyone's wanting to save money on tyres though, then they're probably not bad for a budget choice, and that's fine.
