Bought it from a dealer so don't know the story, but I suspect the different spec tyres front to back are because Falken don't do a single model tyre that fits all 4 corners on this car. My tyres I believe are the original / official size i.e. 225/40 r18 on the front and 295/30 r18 on the back.
Seem like good tyres.
You have the factory spec size tyres.
It will be interesting to hear how the Falkens wear and ride because a set of Conti Contact 2's are about £850.

So keep us posted chaps.
452 is the old model the 453 replaced it. Ran them on the S-Type they (452) were excellent, better than the PZero apart from cold weather <7 Deg C & they take twice as long as everything else to run in.
