Hi All,

Need to replace my rears after about 6k miles whistle (SP0001's) the fronts still have plenty of meat on them hehe

So, I've seen the Falken 452's fitted at £196 - what's peoples opinions on them for the M6 ?

I've also got a friend in the trade who can get me a blinding deal on the Toyo T1'rs

I figure the way i drive (arse out mosty of the time) that spending £400 a corner would be wasted on some mega expensive rubber !

Opinions ?

Sorry, not an M6 owner but potentially a future one but here is my 2 cents. My SL55 AMG is on a second set of Falken FK-452 and they are very impressive, provide great grip in the wet and dry and would be more than happy to purchase again.

The T1Rs are known for their soft sidewalls, which might not suit a heavy powerful car like the M6. The wear would also be shocking if you're only doing 6k out of the Dunlops!

What's the rear size?

Have you tried giving Coster a call mate?
He has a mate in the trade that might be able to help. I'm currently in work but ask Chillipoo or Viant for his number.
