Time to change tires on my S430, 2000 on my 18" AMG wheels.
I have a S430, 2000 with 18" AMG wheels. I’ve been driving on my Bridgestone Potenza last couple of years and now it’s time to change them. The best offer I have got so fat it is $1100.00 (Bridgestone Potenza 18”) with the installation. I was wondering if anyone has a Falken tires. They are much cheaper. Can anyone recommend me using Falken?
Thank you in advance.

My choice for my 20's were Falken or Kuhmo. I chose Kuhmo, but I might end up with something else next tire change.

go to tirerack.com and check out the tires and their ratings for your car/wheel size etc
I bought falken tires for my lexus about 3 years ago...I thought they were really good until replacing them with Michelin, I'll never go back...I put michelin on all my cars now, love the tires and don't mind paying a "slight" premium for the best (debatable

Ditto on the Michelins. I bought my vehicle and immediately placed v rated primacys on the car. The difference was amazing from the stock tires.
