BMW 330ci se Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Falken FK452 given 97% (255-35-18-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 100 average miles
Thanks to all the recommendations on this site which convinced me to try these out.Original fitment all round is Michelin PS2's Which i found hard and uncomfortable.Every undulation or bump seemed to come right up through you, especially on the rear.The fronts are around 5mm so about half worn,the rears needed replacing so tried these.Bought from Camskill.co.uk on line at just over ?100 pounds a piece,in comparison to Ps2's quoted in excess of ?200 each!! Excellent service delivered too door.Fitted at local garage for ?30 and now actually enjoy driving my car, excellent comfort and noise levels.grip so far seems fine but been in dry conditions only and still running in, but they feel surefooted and i feel no less confident than i did with the PS2's although as yet not pushed them hard as running in.
I did originally adjust the pressure down on PS2's, all round as BMW recommend 40psi! on rear, tyre shop said this was to hard and was evident by central tread wear showing over inflation,so reduced to 33psi all round and did feel better.Stuck with same pressure on Falkens and seems fine but will toy with possibly raising rear by 2 to 3 psi to compare.But comfort has dramatically improved
which was important for me.So overall a great tyre at a great price which looks good (comment by tyre fitter) and performs admirably, why pay more i say? Highly recommended thus far but will update on wear etc.The PS 2's gave around 15k of wear with general all round driving.

Driving on mostly country roads for 5000 spirited miles
not bad for the money, dry grip is good but wet grip is less impressive. i think my car deserves better. i'll go for more expensive branded tyres next time.
