Falken AZENIS FK510 Reviews

So, I originally posted a review of the early stages of driving with these tyres...now, I recently purchased another set, cos they had worn, the main issue I have with this tyre is that the first set lasted 25k, which is not great, but for the price, they are better than the competition for how they perform. I've taken these tyres through everything, I've driven through almost every type of road condition and I have to say I'm impressed. Through wet roads, slightly flooded roads, gravel roads, mild off-road, mud and snow/ice...they handled amazingly and it all comes down to throttle control, the tyres will respond. That being said, with the first set of tyres, I copped countless punctures and at one time I had a completely flat tyre. In conclusion, amazing tyre all round, can handle my lead foot and so many weather/road conditions. Cons: won't last long and be careful with punctures.

My experience with the Falken AZENIS FK510s on the street has been great; there is an excellent tyre for driving on regular days, highway driving, and a little sporty driving. However, these tyres will not last on a track day, as I learned a year ago. They heated up far too quickly. That being said, These are meant for sporty driving and maybe a few sharp corners. In the wet, these tyres are fantastic; they hold on their own. They handle amazingly, and I have no issues using them in wet weather driving as the car doesn't try and aqua plan or slip sideways. This is a relief on a prior vehicle I had Federals; they did not do a great job in the wet. They are even driving usually. It was like going on ice! These are great mid-range, sporty tyres if you love driving while being responsible simultaneously!

I wasn't expecting much from these when I got them fitted but after having them for a while and pushing them pretty hard (track days) I can safely say they are great, they are very grippy (warm up fast) with good treadwear, great in the wet and excellent value compared to competitor equivalents.

My car is a reasonably heavy GT with normally aspirated V8 which is a pleasure to drive normally or on challenging roads and in varied conditions. I have found these Falken tyres deal with my driving extremely well, and the reasonable cost is a very welcome bonus. A friend in the UK with the same car also uses them and also loves them.

I had pretty standard van tyres on when I bought the van. Then changed the rim and tyre and the main problem I had with the old tyres was that, despite the deep tread, in the wet, the van would be a death trap. So I was look for a tyre that performed well in the wet and was low on noise. These came across my desk and I also liked the look of them too. So I went with them. And boy are they good! No hydroplaning, no road noise, a little bumpy, but I guess if you had thicker tyres, it would probably be more comfy. At home and on site, I mostly am off-road, either steep sand or gravel and mud...it does ok. I'm happy with this tyre. The old ones scared me to death in the rain. These tyres respond to any steering movements in the wet, dry and are a great tyre!

Bought these tyres to try after the previous owner had fitted some new cheap Vitora Sportlife to the front. For a very cheap tyre they were ok for commuting (2hr drive country roads) in the dry... but were horrendous in the wet, made the car a death trap. The Falken AZENIS FK510 had good reviews and they did not disappoint! The grip both dry and wet is much much better. The road noise is hugely reduced and the ride comfort was so much improved. I have after market rims the tyre size is actually 19" and listed as 245/35 R19. I have not done a lot of km's to date but so far loving these tyres and would not hesitate in buying these again.

I used to use Bridgestone Potenza however, they wear very quickly and are expensive. The Falken FK510 is a Japanese made tyre and is every bit as good. Great looking tyre, a bead around the edge to protect the rims, they also hold excellent pressure. I am very confident with my cars handling with the Falken FK510. I highly recommend looking at these if your after excellent tyres at competitive prices that do what they state they will. Safe & reliable.

Hoping to get another 10.000 km out of the although not likely.

Greatest tyres I’ve ever purchased will not change them.Great price and great grip as I have them on my Chrysler srt8 would recommend them to anyone I know!!!!

Having gone through two sets of Yokohama AE50 which are very quiet and have great grip in wet and dry conditions, I can definitely rate the Falken Azenis up there with them. They seem to have minimal sidewall flex and steering reaction is very good. Both dry and wet conditions grip is quite reassuring, whilst road noise is fairly low. The Azenis FK510 are a great looking tyre with fresh brand and identification markings, also comprising an extra high load rating which should result in good durability and wear. I am very happy with my purchase of these tyres.

took the plunge...one of the first in NZ to get a set. Loved them from the outset. I don't mind the criticism that they're not direct as som UHP tyres as the Falcon has a fast rack anyway. Good GT Tyre. Nice and confident. Epic in the wet. Shoulders are a little soft and have noticed the rears overheat so have dropped them to 34psi...probably need to drop them down to 32. Mind you 840Nms at the rears can do that. I'll get them again. Bang for my buck i'd save 5 hundy kiwi over the MPS4s

So far so good! These tyres have exceeded my expectations. After previously only getting around 13000k’s from a set of tyres from Goodyear F1 supercar and Hankook rs4, I was sceptical about how well these tyres would hold up and last. 7000k’s in and they have no signs of wear. They were good value for money and provide excellent grip in dry conditions, wet grip is still very good. These tyres have a speed rating of 300km/h so are perfect to use on a track day aswell. You will not regret buying these tyres I would quite happily buy these tyres again But I would also love to win a set
