On our testing grounds, two summer tyre models, the Cooper Zeon CS8 and the Falken Azenis FK510 stood out and underwent a thorough performance evaluation.
First off, the Cooper Zeon CS8, produced by Cooper tires, scored an overall rating of 56% on our scale. This summertime enthusiast was crafted with superior British expertise. However, it should be noted that the model did not fare very well in test positions, ending up at the 19th spot in Autobild's testing of 52 tyres and 9th in Automotorsport's evaluation of 11 tyres.
On the other hand, our testing conveyed that the Falken Azenis FK510, manufactured by Falken, performed admirably in all areas and won an impressive 79% approval rating in our assessment. An amalgamation of Japanese and Turkish craftsmanship, the FK510's superior performance reflects in its test positions, scoring third position in both the Autobild and Automotorsport testing. This model has been applauded particularly for its exterior noise suppression, wet braking capabilities, and overall safety under wet conditions.
Note: The Falken Azenis FK510 has now been replaced by the newer model, Falken Azenis FK520.
In summary, while the Cooper Zeon CS8 showed average test positions, it generally performs decently and is a reliable choice. Nevertheless, if your priority leans towards a quieter ride, increased safety, and improved control in wet conditions, the Falken Azenis FK510 demonstrates more exceptional capabilities.
Based on mutual test positions and overall evaluation, it is evident that the Falken Azenis FK510 outperforms the Cooper Zeon CS8. However, drivers' needs and preferences may vary, and it is crucial to select a tyre that best suits one's driving style and conditions.
