Hey guys,

Just curious why I don't see more Z owners sporting/discussing Falken tires. I did a search and out of 7 pages, maybe saw a few for sale threads, mainly Falken 452

Seems Hankook and Conti dominate here, besides going higher end Bridgestone

Falken seems to be a very capable, sticky and also attractive looking tire. Is it just because they have limited options? I won't pretend to be a tire expert, I've owned Falken's on my Prelude many moons ago and Yokohama S-Drives on my Lancer

So just wanted to get some input from some with more tire experience....

I'll be in the market soon...leaning towards Conti DW based on things I've heard members like Mr. Kenchan say but the sidewall is truly unattractive
