Falken Azenis Tires

The Japanese brand Falken came into the market in 1983 and made an entry into the North American region in 1985. The company was committed to both motorsports culture and product innovation, and one of the product families it eventually expanded within its lineup is Azenis. Falken Azenis tires are focused on ultra-high performance, and most of them feature innovative compounds that make them usable on regular roads and racetracks. Excellent grip and performance can be found across these tires, and the following Falken Azenis reviews will help you choose your rubber wisely.

Falken Azenis FK460 A/S

Falken Azenis FK460 A/S

UHP all-season tires such as the Falken Azenis FK460 A/S enable owners of powerful SUVs, sports cars, and performance-based vehicles to put high power to good use. Not only does this tire have incredible handling qualities, but it also looks fantastic. The Falken Azenis FK460 A/S boasts a limited manufacturer tread life warranty of 50,000 miles and receives various traction-related features. It features thoughtful water evacuation channels that quickly remove water to ensure enough wet grip. The tire's grooves work very hard as it gets older to give steady wet traction and a smooth, comfortable ride. Advanced 4D Nano Technology is responsible for maintaining its performance and traction throughout the year. The asymmetrical tire pattern helps drivers feel more confident in different weather conditions, and interconnecting sipes are present for improved wear and traction. The Falken Azenis FK460 A/S was found suitable for an average SimpleScore of 8.7.

Falken Azenis FK510

Ultra-high performance is usually delivered by a tire designed for summer use, and the Falken Azenis FK510 is a great example. This UHP-summer tire, designed for use in warmer months (in temperatures above 45 degrees Fahrenheit), has an average SimpleScore of 8.4. Although the tread's broad circumferential grooves swiftly remove water to promote wet traction and reduce the likelihood of hydroplaning, dry traction is also good. Expect more wet weather traction thanks to the use of a 4D Nano Design compound here. Wide shoulder blocks enable quick turns, and the tread's adaptable shape leads to short braking distances in the rain. Additionally, sipes provide excellent cornering performance and longer wear.

Falken Azenis RT615K+

Falken Azenis RT615K+

The Falken Azenis RT615K+, a descendant of the original, highly successful RT615K, is designed for drivers who prioritize performance. It includes a nanotech-formulated, digitally-engineered compound for better handling and grip. On the race track, drivers are encouraged to push their cars to the maximum in secure, closed-course conditions by the RT615K+'s confidence-boosting straight line and turning characteristics. High-tension carcass construction adds durability for on-street use and makes these DOT-approved UHP-summer tires suitable for regular, legal traffic. For enthusiasts seeking race-proven performance on sports coupes (Audi TT Quattro), performance compacts (Mazda Miata), sports sedans, and muscle cars, the AZENIS RT615K+ is the go-to option usable on track and street. As a tire suitable for warmer conditions (in temperatures above 45 degrees Fahrenheit), we found the Azenis RT615K+ good enough for an average SimpleScore of 8.1.

Falken Azenis RT660

If you intend to clock the ultimate lap time with your Ford Mustang GT350R, Nissan 370Z, or even a lowered Chevrolet C10, it would be a good idea to install Falken Azenis RT660 tires. For drivers who value performance above all else, Falken's innovative, robust carcass structure improves steering responsiveness and vehicle stability. The racing tread compound used here generates unparalleled grip for regular surfaces and tracks. Drivers may eliminate the inconvenience of changing tires before every track day with the DOT-approved, track-ready RT660. While a directional tread pattern ensures even wear for long tread life, the optimized tire profile enhances the contact patch for race-based performance.
