Falken Azenis FK510A SUV UHP Summer 255/45ZR20 105Y XL Passenger Tire

These tires are smooth and quiet on my Q5. While the SUV is not a canyon carver, I do run it at the local drag strip. Drastically improved my 60' times with these tires over the Nexus A/S tires I had previously by completely eliminating wheel spin (3.66 second 0-60). Can't comment on tread life yet, as I only have a couple thousand miles on them. But so far, extremely satisfied with the value of the Falkens. Added performance without sacrificing comfort. A+.

Bought and installed in Feb 2020 and as of today (july 2023) we put 16k miles on them and they are at the bar already. I was a bit shocked by that low of mileage considering this is our "cruiser" car and we don't drive it hard at all (despite being a Cayenne GTS). Moral of the story: if you hardly drive a car (less than 6k a year for us) then I suppose they would be ok, but if it's your daily driver where you put 12k a year, expect those to last a year, worst if you drive it spiritedly. With a tread-wear of 300 I did not expect that low of a mileage when driving it normally (I'm used to run 200 tread-wear or less on my sports cars, where I expect them to not last much past 8k, in comparison)
