I have Falken 452's, and I love them. Some people said that they had problems with them bubbling but I have not. And I drive pretty hard on the streets. They are the top brand for stretching

Ehh I would highly recommend you NOT buy Failken FK452s. I heard the stories about them bubbling and just sucking ***** but I never had any trouble with them until I hit a dip just a little too fast. I ended up with 2 95% new tires with bubbles. I wasn't even that stretched either, 245 on a 9.5j. I'm running Nexen N3000s all around now and love them. They have a high treadwear rating + they're cheap and don't have herpes sidewalls like Failkens. I don't think they have N3000s in 20s though. I've also heard good things about Nankangs and Federals but they have pretty low treadwear ratings.

Yea Nexen are really good, those are going to be my next set. So I co-sign for those

I love how they look on the FD, I would love to know how it would look on the Z. Maybe some one can photoshop it on one, If it looks good shoot I might consider doing it
