I hated my Kuhmos on my Altima. My buddy has the Falken Azenis and he loves them.

The 511's are very nice and so are the Kumho's.

It's a tough call I've had both. I think the Falkens are quieter and look cooler (especially the side-wall). The Kumho's may have a skoash better traction but I never really tested it.

I say get whatever is cheaper, both tires are a great value.

511? Do you mean 512?

Anyway, the 512 and 451 are both good. The 512 is all-season 360 treadwear, the 451 is a 280 treadwear summer tire. 50,000 mile warranty on the 512.

What size?

dude go to dtc in el monte and get tires there. they usually have good prices and they work on fixed up and lowered cars daily.

take 10 west. exit santa anita make make a right at the light. go down till you hit valley. (its a few lights down) make a right on vally and you will see it on your left hand side. DTC (Discount Tires CO).

check out there wheel selection to. they deal in mostly high end wheels.
