Default Tire experts: Should I get Pirelli P6's or Falken FK451's....? [updated]
i'm in SoCal - so a summer tire is good enough (205-55r-16). i want a nice in-the-middle tire, not the absolute best, but not the worst either. i also don't wanna spend too much $$. i understand you can't have everything for cheap, but i want a tire the gives me the most of everything...

the top 3 things i want in order:
- mileage
- performance
- value

P6's have gotten mixed reviews. I know very little of the Falken brand, so no help there, sorry.

I've had a lot trouble balancing P6s-not particularly quiet- all season not summer

Cheng-Shen! j-k My Falken Ziex 512s are better than my p6s. I'd get Conti Extreme again. #1, imo.
