The Azenis FK460 A/S is Falken's Ultra High Performance All-Season tire for drivers of sport coupes, muscle cars, performance sedans and CUVs, and sport EVs (Electric Vehicles) seeking reliable dry grip, confident wet handling, and capable light snow traction as well as comfort, and reasonable tread life.
The Azenis FK460 A/S utilizes an Advanced Nano 4D compound molded into an asymmetric tread design featuring large, high-grip chamfered tread blocks, engineered to deliver competent dry grip and heightened cornering capability at higher speeds. A wide footprint maximizes contact with the road surface for optimal traction, while strong shoulder blocks amplify high-performance handling in dry conditions. Full-depth emerging grooves enhance wet traction when new and expand as the tire wears for improved wet weather performance throughout the tire's life. Four circumferential grooves provide ample pathways to generous lateral shoulder voids for efficient water evacuation and hydroplaning resistance. Transverse notches provide biting edges for enhanced all-season traction and combine functionally with interlocking sipes on the inboard section for reliable traction in slush and light snow.
Internal construction of the Azenis FK460 A/S consists of two high-tensile steel belts atop a reinforced two-ply polyester casing. A polyamide cap ply further stabilizes the tread for high-speed handling and durability.
Limited sizes of the Azenis FK460 A/S are available with Falken's Silent Core technology, which involves the manufacturer adhering a layer of sound-absorbing foam to the inner liner of the tire to reduce cabin noise in the vehicle. These sizes are identified on the Specs page and in the search results.
El neumático Azenis FK460 A/S de Falken pertenece a la categoría: Ultra Alto Rendimiento Para Toda Estación y fue desarrollado para conductores de cupé deportivos, autos musculosos, sedán de rendimiento, utiliautos (CUV, por sus siglas en inglés) y vehículos eléctricos deportivos (EV, por sus siglas en inglés). Estos conductores buscan un neumático que proporcione tracción confiable en condiciones secas y mojadas, a la vez de proporcionar confort, una vida útil razonable y tracción sobre superficies con poca nieve.
El Azenis FK460 A/S utiliza un compuesto de caucho "Advanced Nano 4D" moldeado en una banda de rodamiento asimétrica que cuenta con bloques grandes biselados de alta tracción, los cuales, proporcionan excelente tracción sobre superficies secas y mayor capacidad, al girar a velocidades rápidas. Una huella ancha maximiza el contacto con la carretera, para proporcionar una tracción óptima. Bloques o tacos fuertes en los hombros, aumentan el manejo de alto rendimiento en condiciones con superficies secas. Canales profundos emergentes, cuando son nuevos, mejoran la tracción sobre superficies mojadas y se expanden a medida que el neumático se va desgastando, lo cual, mejora el rendimiento en condiciones mojadas, durante el ciclo de vida del neumático. Cuatro canales circunferenciales proporcionan una salida amplia del agua a canales laterales espaciosos, permitiendo una evacuación de agua eficiente, a la vez, de aumentar la resistencia al deslizamiento sobre agua (hydroplaning). Ranuras transversales proporcionan bordes adherentes para aumentar la tracción para toda estación, además, trabajan en conjunto con pequeñas ranuras que se entrelazan en la parte interna de la huella, para proporcionar tracción confiable sobre superficies con aguanieve o poca nieve.
La construcción interna del Azenis FK460 A/S consiste de dos correas de acero resistentes a tensiones fuertes por encima, de una estructura de refuerzo con dos capas de poliéster. Una capa de poliamida estabiliza, aún más, la huella para mejorar la durabilidad y maniobrabilidad a velocidades rápidas.
Un número limitado de tamaños del Azenis FK460 A/S se encuentran disponibles con la tecnología "Silent Core" de Falken. Esta, agrega una capa de espuma absorbente de ruido en la parte interna del neumático para reducir el ruido en la cabina del vehículo. Los tamaños que utilizan "Silent Core" son identificados en las páginas de especificaciones "Spec" y en los resultados de búsqueda.

Feedback consistently shows the Falken Azenis FK460 A/S delivers excellent dry traction (9-10 scores dominate) and outstanding wet grip with strong hydroplaning resistance. Winter performance earns praise for snow handling, though ice traction shows occasional lower scores (2-5 in some cases). Ride comfort receives consistent positive marks, with many noting a smooth, quiet experience. Treadwear ratings lean positive (8-10 range common), though a few reports of rapid wear suggest variability in tread life. As an Ultra High Performance All-Season tire, it excels in its core categories while maintaining balanced all-weather capability, with winter ice performance being the only notable area of mixed feedback.

...Great dry and wet traction; snow is an unknown as it's a 3 season car!...
Awesome UHP A/S tire at a great price point! Great dry and wet traction; snow is an unknown as it's a 3 season car! As a convertible, it's extremely quiet....top down, who cares! Definitely would recommend and would buy again! Rides and handles so much better than the OE Goodyear Run-Flats!

Replaced the original OEM Pilot Sport 4 all seasons with these. The Falkens were more quiet, rode less harsh and had every bit of the dry and wet traction that the Michelins were famous for. I actually like the Falkens better than the All Season Pilots. If you have a Model 3 AWD Long range or Performance, the Falkens are definitely worth a look. I’ve driven these almost three thousand miles and even the wife noticed they were quieter and less harsh over bumps and expansion joints than the Michelins. Definite upgrade over the Michelins and for 1/2 the price per tire.

I have driven these tires in heavy rain, with puddles, and experienced no hydroplaning at 75 mph, which is impressive for wide 245/45/ZR19 tires. Additionally, these tires gave great traction on muddy roads due to heavy rains in south Texas lately...
I am impressed with the set of Faulken Azenis 460AS tires. My QX50 handles far better than the Bridgestone tires that the factory put on it. My Faulken tires are quieter and stop sooner. I have driven these tires in heavy rain, with puddles, and experienced no hydroplaning at 75 mph, which is impressive for wide 245/45/ZR19 tires. Additionally, these tires gave great traction on muddy roads due to heavy rains in south Texas lately. I like this tires and will buy them again.

...SNOW-still early in the season, but received about 2 inches of snow, and these sites performed well in the light snow. Good traction and I can feel the tires digging into the snow to give the car the grip it needed...
When I needed to replace my tires on my Model Y 2021, I didn't want to pay an exorbitant amount of money for the stock Goodyear tires and they had no Millage warranty.
I went with the fallen and only have 1500 miles on them but I absolutely love these tires for a a few reasons. I live in the northeast and withing the 1000 miles here is what I found.
1-DRY-Handles amazing on dry pavements. I can feel that they are grippy and has good contact with the road, excellent.
2-Rain/wet-the first day I had these tires on we got an exorbitant amount of rain, and these tires held up like a champ… Great contact with the pavement, excellent expulsion of water, thus less chance of hydroplaning… Just an all-around good tire.
3-SNOW-still early in the season, but received about 2 inches if snow, and these sites performed well in the light snow. Good traction and I can feel the tires digging into the snow to give the car the grip it needed.
I feel really safe with these tires after 1500 miles, and I will absolutely get them again, and you cannot beat the price.
I may add to this, as we get more snow in the Northeast, also wanted to add great customer service from tire rack, because these tires were not in stock, or got back-ordered, and Tire rack kept me informed throughout the process

...second, they are ' stickier,' i.e., it is harder to break the rear end free (driving on the same roads & curves)...
To give you some context, I live in a rural area with miles and miles of beautiful, windy country highways, roads and lanes—as well as miles of gravel roads— on which I drive fairly aggressively (or "spirited," using Tire Rack terminology). Think: on occasion, I will push things to the point where the rear breaks end free. I previously had two sets of Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires, with which I was reasonably satisfied with. I would get around 30,000 miles out of each set. So, needing a set of tires, and noticing that a set of (4) Falkens was about $100 less expensive than the Continentals (my girlfriend would tell you I'm cheap), I decided to give the Falkens a try. After ±500 miles, I would say they have been a pleasant surprise. Indeed, I have found no deficiencies. In particular, two things stand out when contrasted with the Continentals:
- first, they roll significantly smoother and quieter - second, they are "stickier," i.e., it is harder to break the rear end free (driving on the same roads & curves)
Lastly, I don't imagine that they'll last any longer than the Continentals, given my driving style, so wear will likely be a push—but one never knows… Hope you found this review useful.

...Before it started snowing I tested these tires on the dry streets also with some corners and they handle amazingly! I have a lot of grip and am able to take a turn very quick and hard without loosing traction...
Got bigger wheels for my vehicle which are 20”, been searching for tires and didn’t want to break the bank on some over priced Michelin tires, found these tires by Falken. A very amazing price for some amazing tires! It’s been snowing where I live and these tires are fantastic, haven’t gotten stuck in snow yet even though we had about 20” of snow fall here. I drive a low car so if I get stuck on snow it would because of my ride height.
Before it started snowing I tested these tires on the dry streets also with some corners and they also handle amazingly! I have a lot of grip and am able to take a turn very quick and hard without loosing traction.
I will definitely purchase these tires over and over again because for the price and how well they perform is great!

...Very quiet, comfortable ride...
I formally had Continental Extreme Contact DWS and loved them. They were unavailable and I went with the Falken. So far I've been very pleased. Very quiet, comfortable ride. Great performance with an all season tire. If they last as long as the Continental, I'll be really pleased.

I have about 100 miles on these tires. I drive a model 3 performance and the road noise has been reduced about 20-30%; my wife feels these are a significant improvement over stock in terms of comfort and noise. Tires also appear to be a little smoother over bumps compared to the Pilot Sport 4s. You do loose a little bit of the direct steering feel because the tire likely has a softer sidewall. Overall, I’d recommend these tires as an alternative for the long distance commuter - if you’re a looking for a sporty tire probably be better off buying the summer tire version.

So happy I read the previous reviews for these tires. These are by far way better than the horrible Continentals (SportContact6) that come with the car. You can feel right away less noise and bumpiness. The Continentals also have crap tread wear with just average driving and are very expensive for the low quality they provide. These Falken's are way nicer as a ride and also look better on the car. On top of that they are all season so you are ready for any change in climate specially here in the upper Mid-West. Like other reviewers have said, just give them a try.
