Falken Azenis FK510 vs Falken Azenis FK520 — Compared

“I put the fk510 on my 2014 535d msport and the rears only lasted 10-11k or one year. Trying something different. They are a good performance summer tire but not worth replacing every year.”

“Falken Azenis FK510 prices? Anyone know why the prices for Falken Azenis FK510's went up 25% or more in the last month? 235/40R18 went from $154 to $192. The whole benefit of these tires is that they offer PS4S performance for way less money. Now, you midaswhale just buy the Michelins. I haven't seen any other summer tires make that kind of a jump in price. I know Falken announced a price increase for 2022, but it was only like 5%. What's the dealio? Read more”

“I've had a set of Falken Azenis FK510's on my car for a couple of months now, and just this past weekend took a trip through the twisties up to Prescott, and pushed the car as hard as I could heading up the mountain. I was a little nervous as I'd never used Falken tires before, but trusted in Tire Rack's reviews of them and pushed the envelope in every turn I hit. It was a pleasant surprise to find that the tires were gripping just as well as the much more expensive Michelin tires they'd replaced, and I even hit a personal best of .95g going around one of the more nasty turns. During this entire drive I never felt once like the tires weren't gripping perfectly, or that I was going to lose control from them breaking loose. Road noise is pretty much non-existent, and they seem to run pretty smooth over every surface I've driven them on so far. All-in-all I don't regret my purchase one bit, and if their longevity is anything like what I got out of my previous set of Michelins I'll definitely be buying another set once this one is done for.”

“Escolha de pneus - consumo de combustível Estou a ver pneus para um dos carros cá de casa (Nissan Qashqai) que usa 225/45 R19. E estava a apontar para os Falken Azenis FK520 ou os Hankook Ventus S1 Evo3 K127, ambos de Verão. Apesar de a Hankook ser considerada "premium", os Falken são mais caros mas também têm rebordo de proteção de jante (que estes Hankook não têm). No entanto, entretanto encontrei os Pirelli Powergy, também de Verão, mas com a diferença de ter classificação B no consumo de combustível, ao invés da categoria C dos Falken e Hankook. Custam mais 30€ que os Hankook e mais 11€ que os Falken. A minha dúvida é se a melhor classificação de consumo de combustível na prática traz algum benefício real e prático, que justifique pagar mais pelos pneus se eventualmente depois tiver uma notória poupança de consumo? Ou na prática estas classificações são irrelevantes e mais vale ir para os outros 2 mais baratos com classificação C? Read more”

“I have these on the front of my T6 Ocean 150 and can't fault them. There's nothing special or concerning about them as summer tyres and they're a reasonable price.”

“Your pricing seems way off for Hankook. Here is comparison for 245/40/19 EU prices - Falken FK520 and Hankook Evo K137 (latest and very well performing against Contis, GYs and Michelins) are in 140€ range. GY F1AS6 is 170€ per piece. I went for latest HK Evo K137 and could not be happier - it stacks up very well for a fast driving, is quiet and has excellent response. Falken FK520 is snappy in wet. Goodyears are pensioneer tires, boring as hell.”
