The Falken Azenis FK520 and the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 are two summer tyres worthy of comparison. While they provide excellent performance in their own right, a closer look at test results reveals distinct strengths and weaknesses.

The Falken Azenis FK520 tyre, a successor to the Falken Azenis FK510, delivers an overall performance rating of 75%. Made in Turkey, this ultra ultra-high performance (UUHP) tyre particularly excels in areas of aquaplaning - longitudinal and exterior noise. However, as per the test data, it demonstrates minor weaknesses in comfort and handling on wet surfaces. This tyre has consistently ranked within the top 10 in various tests, including Autobild and Autozeitung, indicating its reliable and consistent performance.

In contrast, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6, replacing previous models such as the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 and Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3, scored a perfect rating of 100%. Made in Germany, this tyre – categorised as ultra-high performance (UHP) – has consistently outperformed the Falken FK520 in the test results, particularly impressing in comfort, dry braking, dry handling, mileage, and value for money. Meanwhile, weaknesses are seemingly non-existent for this tyre, making it an excellent choice for summer driving.

When it comes to individual test position, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 often secures a higher ranking than the Falken Azenis FK520. In the Autobild test, the former achieved the 2nd spot out of 50, whereas the latter secured 8th place. This trend continued across Autozeitung and ADAC tests, demonstrating this tyre's superior performance.

In conclusion, while both Falken and Goodyear have proven their mettle in the tyre industry, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 shows a more robust and well-rounded performance in comparison to the Falken Azenis FK520 based on the provided data. Therefore, while the Falken tyre does provide a worthy performance, the Goodyear model emerges as the more compelling choice for summer tyres based on these test results.
