I am putting Falkens on the C32 Tommorow..
After Toyo slept on my calls, I decided to call Falken.
A week later I got these..
265/30 19 and 235/35 19 GRB FK 451

Should be a different drive, I have been on Toyo T-1S for the past 4 years..
Toyo has sent me at least 8 sets of free tires, but I needed a change...

I have Falken Ziex ZE 512s up front too.. 215/40/17 (my BfGoodrich Gforce KDW2s in the back are still good, not too mention that the first shop that I had try and mount the falkens couldn't do it and I ended up putting a hole in the sidewall trying to help get the tire off the machine. :(

Hmmm...I dunno...I still love my Toyos! I had some Falken Azenis on the Yatta for a while, but didn't ever feel comfortable with them on the track so I got T1-s instead.

The Falken Zeix ZE512's are pretty good, thats what i have no now. Also they arent very expensive and are good rain/snow tires.
I ran the 451's on my car as well. Great tires.

That, and he's Dan! Who wouldn't send him free tires?
And Sean owns Teck, so I don't think it'd be hard to get the hook-ups.

haha good explanation Juice....im running Azenis Sports on my drift wheels and Azenis ST115 D1 Sports on my 18's......they also just put out a new drifting compund called the RT-215......somewhat between a drag radial and a drift tire......lots of smoke and super sticky.

I just put them on, there is a werid gap between the rim and rubber..kinda looks streached too.. Euro Style....
They are very grippy.....

There is a built in "rim protector" the tire sidewall extends out a bit where it meets the rim to keep the wheels form being scratched.

12-02-2004, 09:26 PM
yeah that happens when you stretch the tire on a wide rim.....looks better in my opinion.....its actually better in my case for drifting.....you have a wider rim but less of a contact patch for better sliding action, plus you can lower the car alot more to clear fenders etc. Ive got 225/40/18 on a 8.5 up front and 255/35/18 on a 9.5 in the rear
Vader13
12-02-2004, 11:40 PM

this is just wrong, the bling bling rich guys get free tires, and the poor fat kid has to buy his. what is this world coming to :nonono2:
"falken tires, how can i help you"
"i'm sean, my pool is lined with street racing money and i need tires, give me them free or i will talk shit about you in M5"
"ok sir, there in the mail"

Don't worry Chunky, I'm poor too, but I get $10 tires (close to free) at the volvo junkyard nearby. :D
Lemme know what size you need. ;)

See now...I just don't understand this "get new tires for drifting" thing. Basically I spend $$ on high performance tires that are supposed to keep me glued to the road, following the line like I'm supposed to be. If I'm sliding sideways then I'm either A) driving beyond my abilities/conditions or B) my tires need replacing..

Check the links to hear the Eisenmann Race Exhaust..
They have sport, but the stock AMG sounds like the sport one..
I took off my resinator so this exhaust is going to push!
I hope to gain around 358HP to the crank..
http://www.eisenhaus.com/ehprice.php?selSub=302&selPerf=3&selTip=885%231.45%232round.gif&Submit.x=28&Submit.y=9
The sound bite is off a C320.. Mine is the C32 Kompressor...
The Eisanmann race exhaust is badass. I don't think you'll gain 358HP from it though. :D
Vader13
12-04-2004, 03:33 AM
I mean I should be up to around that number clown,, easy...
This guy got one, look's hard...no one make's em for the C32 its wack..not even Brabus..So I was really happt that Eisenmann did it finally
I hate the stock AMG OVals..Every poser in the world has them welded on their BNZ's..This Race Set up is mean..
