Falken has launched a new range of Azenis FK520 UHP tyres as an alternative to the Michelin Pilot Sport and Pirelli P Zero -
. The new Falken Azenis FK520 are Y-rated and have been designed to highlight steering precision and feel, as well as outright grip.
It’ll do this in a multitude of ways, starting with the tyre’s internal structure which is reinforced with Aramid, a man-made woven polymer similar to Kevlar, that provides greater stability under load and therefore feeds back more precise steering feedback. Falken has also reduced the tyre’s overall weight by ten percent compared to its predecessor, reducing unsprung mass and rolling resistance.
The tread material itself has been optimised to remain dimensionally stable at high loads, evening out their wear pattern, and the blocks themselves have a diamond-cut finish to their edges, reducing the road roar often attributed to UHP tyres.
