Default 2005 Mustang GT - Falken FK-452 Tires

Does anyone have these on their car? Im thinking on 255/40/19 for 19x9.5 inch wheels. Does the setup sound good? Any opinions on these tires, wet/dry traction, and anything else I should know.

Thanks

I have the FK-451 Falkens in 255/45/18 and 275/40/18...

They have great dry traction and good wet traction, but then we drive sensibly in the wet weather (don't we)???

The FK-452 are the new replacement for the FK-451s...

Low pricing makes these tires a good choice...

with 19" wheels i don't think you have too many options lol.

While I don't have that specific model, I currently have RT-615's and LOVE them. I have had various Falkens on my previous stangs and have never been displeased.

I've got the FK-452 on my 06GT.
275/35/20's on the rear, 245/40/20's on the front.
Absolutely love them!!!
Excellent in wet weather, great traction at the street/track (yeah, i know).
