Its interesting reading all the posts about the falkens having run 452s for over 15k I have to say I have had no problems with them rain or dry.

Even after 20 laps of bruntingthorpe last summer they still grip very well in damp conditions.

I think you cant compare one tyre on various cars ie how it would be on insignia vs e90. In past tyres that i bought for one car did not fair as well on another I suppose its to do with setup, geometry and how the car drives.

In this case comparing tyre feel from a FWD to RWD car is not very fair. For example when I went from Contis on wifes Blcass to Falkens 452s the actual front grip felt better in corners wet or dry however road noise did increase a bit.

In mine I went from bridgestone rft 17" to 18" 452s and found them far more compliant and better at handling. With my heavy foot the rears certainly have lasted well
