I ran Falken FK452`s on my Impreza and found them to be reasonably good in the dry and very good in the wet. They lasted fairly well too.

For the price you cant go wrong IMO.

I'm using the 912's on my car and I rate them highly. Much better than the F1's I had on my old car.

Have you lot actually used a decent tyre? Falkens are crap, they aren't known as ditch finders for nothing. The FK451's that I had moons back I took off and binned them with about 5/6mm of tread left, they were crap. They were excellent for clearance though.

F1's are regarded as one of the best on the market are they not??? I found them to be pure shit, the 912's I am now using are a hell of a lot better.

Mine have been on since 2 weeks before I had the car and they've always been awful. Glad to hear it's only going to get better

True however my mate has also changed to 912s on his LCR from goodyears but not the F1s. He likes them more also.

I found good years rubbish two on three different cars, Falkens however aren't any better in my opinion. I've tried every brand except Toyo and vredestein the michelins have always been the best for me followed by conti and bridgestone.

If you don't push your car however im sure the falkens will be fine!

Well I really push the Evo and it holds the road VERY well. I also believe that the cars 4wd has a lot to do with it
