Default New rubber on the TL.....

First time I've gone with an "off" branded tire in a long time......I'm impressed......these Falken FK-451's stick like glue......much better than the Bridgstones they replaced

Falken makes great tires man, I've been real impressed with my 275/45/20's. I guess the only thing I don't like about mine is that they like to throw rocks, I'd buy another set though.

I run cooper cobras on most of my shelby stuff but recently tried a set of the falken tires, not bad, they hook, but don't expect a lot of miles out of them, they wear quick, real quick.
