2024 Tire Rack UHP All Season Tyre Test P7 of 9

The Falken Azenis FK460 A/S provided a promising ride on the road, balancing comfort and compliance without being too stiff and keeping road noise to a low volume. The steering feel was direct and natural but lacked a certain spark, needing a bit more heft and precision to be truly satisfying. On the wet track, the steering remained light and lively, but the tyre lacked lateral traction, requiring earlier braking to manage mid-corner speed and prevent sliding. This was reflected in its slower lap times. The dry track performance was not much of an improvement, with the same smeary, excessive movement and a tendency to push when driven hard. Winter conditions were not kind to the tyre; its traction was among the weakest in the test, and it required driving within a very narrow window to maintain control, as any misstep resulted in either understeer or abrupt rotation.

Initial Impressions

These tires are great. I researched for months trying to get as much data as possible about them. The tread design is very similar to the now defunct Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+. But these are way more comfortable than any Michelin Pilot Sport model. I also used to have the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500, and those heat cycled and aged out before I could wear out the tread. The Firestones albeit older technology had the grip of an all season if I’m being honest. I got them from a guy off Facebook marketplace for cheap, so it was worth it.

However these Falkens are a different story. I can feel the rear end of my car “track” into a turn better. Kinda like my old Continental EC DW (v1). Of course since they are new they will feel better than my old tires. I don’t commute far so I never wear out my tread. So the Falken’s make the sensible purchase. I can’t comment on their performance in rain or sow bc it’s been nothing by an everlasting hot summer here in SoCal in 2026.

I use this as my summer tire in upstate New York. Good responsive tire. It's a bumpier ride than my winter tires (wintrac pro). About the same noise level as the wintrac pro.

I'm very happy with these tires.
Looking at the performance specs compared to others, and from my own experience with them, I believe these tires have been underrated by consumer reviews.

Extreme grip but were completely worn down at 26,000 miles. Very disappointed in this purchase. Additionally, Falkan requires tire rotations every 5,000-7,000 miles to satisfy their "Warranty" requirements. I will never buy this brand again.
