Awesome. Nuff Said
Installed on Volkswagen Passat
I've driven mostly on on Falken tyres for the past 10 years, including some basic Ziex (325 & 512), progressing through Azenis ST115 (2 sets) and then FK452 (4 sets)... along the way I have had F1 GSD3 (2 sets) and Pirelli P7 (2 years)... and I drive really hard (most of my tyres last 20-25000)... and the FK452 are my benchmark for Dry and Wet.
What I like
Grip, Grip, Grip.
Quiet, including near silent jack rabbit starts and no inner wheel squeal
Corners fast and steady, in both dry and wet conditions.
Braking is good and translates to progressive feel.
New Tyre smell last for days
What I do not like
Needs to run in (300km)
Initially squirms on hard braking and wet cornering before tyre wears in.
Lack of cornering tyre squeal leaves beginners with little aural feedback
Pricey!

sticks like a glue on the road. Side walls of the tyre should be more hard. Better handling in turns, harder sidewalls, more kms/life and better look! The noise on these aren't of that annoying, since I have a loud engine. But to those economical, quiet cars, they can be really noisy to the ears.

Good grippy tyres.
Installed on Mercedes-Benz CLS350
I have put those Continentals on my ride after replacing my old, worn-out tyres. These tyres made my car come to a stop better than any other tried before. Handling in corners is good but isn't best. This tyre is very good in straight lines
What I like
They have a good grip, and driving on straights are really comfortable!
What I do not like
These tyres are quite expensive.

Performing like a beast through every corner
Howdy from down under, what can I say, these tyres have changed the characteristic understeer that my Audi TT has, at speed when on the highway or having a hoot around town, these tyres give me real bite and turn in plus extra grip compared to what I had with the standard stock tyres they have, totally changed the driving of the car. Fabulous turn in, grip is fantastic, favourite corners can now be taken at 10kph or more, faster than before with no slippage! Totally boosted my confidence level while driving! Definitely worth the buy!
What I like
Quite expensive for what it does.
What I do not like
The price is bit high

Quite possibly the best Continental tyre available
I've always had a love/hate relationship with Continental tyres, but this one is a definite winner. Amazing wet and dry grip and performance coupled with great aquaplaning resistance makes this tyre a delightfully sticky tyre that sticks to the road in all conditions. The ride comfort levels are through the roof, and the best part is that this tyre actually lasts long and treadwear is good. Only downsides are that it can get quite noisy and it's expensive. But you get what you pay for
What I like
Superb wet and dry grip and performance; great aquaplaning resistance; very, very comfortable; one of the longest treadlife any Continental tyre has to offer
What I do not like
Quite noisy & expensive

Super costly but super excellent tyre.
The steep price may be a bit unwarranted, but the performance on both wet and dry asphalt is super excellent! Dry or wet, it never fails to grip the road and it stops fast. The responsiveness of these tyres is also super good, and it's super quiet as well. The best thing is that these tyres last quite long.

Quiet, comfortable, sticks to the road like superglue and never fails.
These tyres have impressed me massively even though I'm not a fan of the too-soft sidewalls. It sticks to all sorts of tarmac, whether rough or smooth, wet or dry, it never loses contact with the road. The braking distance is the shortest I've ever seen, and even in wet conditions, the braking distance is very short without any skidding or losing control. I found that out on the Pasir Gudang circuit when a stupid cat decided that it wanted to cross the track right in front of my car when I was racing down at 200.
What I like
The superglue grip on dry and wet roads and the way it still manages to stay quiet and comfortable with that kind of grip. Plus, the tread lasts quite awhile
What I do not like
Expensive, but it's worth it IMO
