I've read all the post about the Falkens, good and bad. I was not sure what to expect. A west coast engineer who never ran them was against them, I normally don't read his post because they are always negative, But I was at Pocono for the regional and tried the Falkens out. I am now Pro Falken tire. I made no change to the car, just bolted them on. My nephew Jack set the fast lap on day 2 and runs the same set up as the regular slicks. I will be ordering a set for myself. The experience was GREAT. My brother will try them out in New Jersey in a few weeks. Try them out before you knock them.
