Contis are fantastic! Falken sucks... My 452s were terrible they wore out in less than 20k and they became really noisy in under 5k... I've had contis on most my cars...

David: I dig the plates!

I8ABMR: also ill plates...

I had 2 sets of Fk452s on my dropped GS . They are noisy tires but they are cheap. On my second set the tread separated so I am pretty much done with Falken. I figured if Mercedes pits Contis on their cars they have to be pretty decent.
