Love mine. Ive had them on the stock 4thgen wheels (215/55/r16) and after market set up which is 225/45/r17 which i believe is the same size that come with the 5th gen. They both handle well, but the 17's have a definite hand up on corning.



This is them BTW. Dont know why i posted them, just felt skippy.

You'll never know your personal feelings on the 452's if you've never tried em. I say do it. I do hear it is a fairly quiet, decent performing tire. Does well in wet and dry weather. I was going to wrap em around my Works but I went a cheaper route. Treadwear rating is good, feedback is good, might as well.

I have them in 235/45/17's and they are great tires for $98 a piece. They perform just as well as most UHP tires in wet and dry conditions. Side walls are much stiffer than average but it also depends on which size you are looking for: taller sidewalls will lessen stiffness affect vs shorter...

245/45/18 for me and wet driving is amazing, corners are good until treads start getting lower, quiet, stable, no dis-coloring, high speed rating.
