The FK452 is a decent tire for what you are looking for... The 555's lose a ton of performance after not a long time... The set I had got hard in less than a year, and they dry out real bad with cracking in the sidewalls common after less than 2 years... The same trend applies to almost all the 555 series... The Neo Gens appear to use different tread compounds, and from limited experience with them, they definitely seem like a superior tire to the 555, especially for what you are looking for...
