[s-cars] tire opinions

[LL - NY]

I am assuming the FK452 is an improvement on the FK451. My
biggest (minor) complaint on the FK451 for street use is the softer
than expected sidewalls, less responsive in turn in than expected
for a Max Performance tire. Otherwise VERY grippy, and unexpectedly
quiet for it's class, good wet, smooth riding. This eval is entirely street
based, so track junkies will need a review from someone else. I would
rate it's performance (street) somewhat below the GY Eagle F1 GSD3,
mostly due to the diminished response comparatively, but they feel
as if they grip as well, and they are much quieter.
