In this comparison, we will be looking at two summer tyres: the Falken Azenis FK510 and the Nexen N fera Sport. Both tyres have been extensively tested and reviewed, offering different strengths and weaknesses. Let's dive into the details and find out which tyre comes out on top in various tests and overall performance.
The Falken Azenis FK510 is a summer tyre with a 90% rating, made in Japan and Turkey. It has been replaced by the newer Falken Azenis FK520. Some of the FK510's strengths include good aquaplaning resistance, comfort, low exterior noise, excellent price/value, and low rolling resistance. In the Autobild tests, it ranked 15th out of 50 tyres and 8th out of 11 tyres in AutoMotorSport tests. It also scored well in GTÜ and ADAC tests, with a 3rd and 8th place finish, respectively.
On the other hand, the Nexen N fera Sport is a UHP summer tyre with an 86% rating, made in the Czech Republic. It is a first equipment on BMW 2-series Active Tourer. Some of its strengths are excellent aquaplaning resistance (longitudinal), low exterior noise, and strong wet braking performance. It ranked 7th out of 50 tyres in Autobild tests and 9th out of 11 tyres in AutoMotorSport tests. The N fera Sport also took the top spot in GTÜ tests and placed 5th in ADAC tests.
In summary, both the Falken Azenis FK510 and the Nexen N fera Sport have their own unique strengths and weaknesses. The Falken Azenis FK510 is a more comfortable and quieter tyre with better price/value, making it suitable for less demanding driving conditions. However, it has been replaced by the newer Falken Azenis FK520.
The Nexen N fera Sport, on the other hand, excels in wet braking and aquaplaning resistance while also offering decent comfort and noise levels. It may not be the most sporty tyre, but its performance in various tests and first equipment status on the BMW 2-series Active Tourer prove it to be a solid choice for those looking for a reliable summer tyre.
Based on test results and overall performance, the Nexen N fera Sport takes the lead in this comparison, offering better wet performance and a higher overall ranking in most tests. However, if comfort and price/value are more important to you, the Falken Azenis FK510 is still a solid option to consider, especially when its successor, the Falken Azenis FK520, becomes available.
