Kumho SPT or Falken 451/452...

[boedean]

These are the three I'm deciding between. Kumho SPT, Falken 451, Falken 452. They will be going on my Chevy Caprice with 18x9.5 rims. Summer only, size will be 275/40/18. I've had both Kumho and Falkens in the past but haven't put many miles on them. As far as I can tell, the Falkens might not last as long. I can get the Falken 451s about $60 cheaper for the set. If any of you more knowledgable people can offer an opinion, it might help me make this choice. Oil and Tire info together! I love this site! Jeff

There were some serious, although not abundant, quality issues with the FK 451 a few years back. Tread was separating from the sidewalls, tires were literally coming apart during casual hwy driving. Hopefully the 452 does not have that problem.
