I have them on my E39 before and they were great. Quiet, and good traction.

Go with Yokohama S-drives... they're a better tire. Last longer and ride a little better... The Fk-452's are a decent tire, but they are discontinuing them soon. The s-drives just recently came out and I personally prefer them, as does everyone else I've seen try both tires.
discontinuing them? why
