Falken Azenis FK510 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 142 reviews

Owners broadly rate the Falken Azenis FK510 as a grippy, confidence-inspiring ultra-high-performance tire, with strong praise for dry grip and consistently good wet grip. Around a quarter to a third of owners also highlight strong value for money, plus generally good ride comfort and acceptable-to-quiet road noise. The main recurring drawback is wear: around one in five owners complain of short tread life, and a smaller group also report that performance can tail off as the tire gets worn.

Tires went on at the start of lockdown in UK. So the car was little used. 5,500 miles, and 12 months later and the rears are completely bald! This was on fairly gentle driving on an older 525i touring. I’d always had Dunlop Sport Max on there previously and always averaged 15,000 miles. The Falken’s were recommended to last a little longer, but not so. I’d avoid these for a rear wheel drive car certainly.

I’m only commenting to say if you want a tire to see out some miles don’t bother with these, currently fitted to my mrs 140hp mpv they are mot failures after 12,000 miles/2years fitted, even after being on the car 1year/7,000 miles they were a mot advisory. The cars not pushed hard and mainly driven by her, when I’m at the wheel alone yes I may get a stomp on but it dose not justify the crap millage, Other than that dry grip is good, wet is ok not the greatest.

Tires worn very fast. In 2 years about 15k miles and they nearly worn. Didn't expect this from hard runflat tires.

Had Falken Azenis 510s for three years now. For a sport biased tire it was surprisingly comfortable and quiet. Good grip levels as expected, but would break traction under strong acceleration. Cornering traction was very good. Only downside seems wear, the driven tires need replacing after 20.000 miles of mixed use.

Just swapped my Falken Azenis for Yokohama's on my BMW 520D Sport. But thought I would leave a review as I got 20k miles out of them and I drive (Well before lockdown!) all road types, Motorway, Dual Carriageway, A roads and country lanes, about 12k miles per year. I had them on the rear of the car, (275/ 35/ 19R) to be fair they always gripped well and I never lost the back end, rain or shine. I would buy them again, but replaced with the Yoko's purely on cost, they were about £30 - 40 pounds a corner cheaper than the Falken's at the time of purchase.

Got these Falkens as cost effective option based on 'basic' Falkens I had on my previous, less powerful car. I have grown to appreciate the 'feeling' of the Falken tires in general, and these in particular. The tires give me a lot of confidence, even though I am not pushing them anywhere near their limits. Good feeling and performance in dry and wet. They do feel a bit 'gritty' on Belgian highways (not known for being well maintained, tending to have potholes and a patchwork of quick repair patches, etc), transferring most little bumps, while still managing to even out larger bumps. Silent and reliable on any road surfaces that are even remotely decent. Wear was a bit more than I anticipated, though this is my first car with this kind of performance/weight combination so I am not sure if this is due to the tire, or simply because of that particular setup.

I have just changed from nexen nfera which I thought were pretty good but these new falkerns are just brilliant. 4 weeks in and I've been doing 100 Miles a day in wet heavy rain and slippery roads (same journey every day) so I can see a huge difference in the car, much better grip in dry and especially in wet, less body roll so much more confidence wen taking bends.

Only use them for couple of days but first impression is grate, Falcon tires are on the front and new Michelins primacy 4 at the back, why I didn't put falcons at the back i don't know they are super and cost lots less then Michelins. Falcons azenis are very quiet and super confortable, very good grip on wet car corners very well, when changed my old tires I felt a big difference straight away They look nice as well Michelins primacy look horrible compared to this one's

Very nice tires, mounted on my Subaru STI, and I was positively surprised. Before I have mounted Bridgestone S001 and Dunlop SportMaxx, and I have to say that Falken tires are definitively better. Very good on the dry, superlative on wet. Sidewall has good consistency, not to hard and not to weak. Considering also the good price, I think that there isn't anything better. Strongly reccomended!
