Today we will compare two popular tyres: the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 and the Falken Azenis FK520. Both are known for their high performances but let's dive deeper and see how they compare in various tests.

The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 outperforms Falken Azenis FK520 in most of the comparative tests. It's manufactured in Germany and received our rating of 93%. It's defined as a UHP summer tyre. It has been replaced by a newer tyre, but this model is still high in demand. The best features of this tyre include dry handling, comfort, noise, rolling resistance, and resistance to aquaplaning, with a focus on superb balance in dry condition.

On the other hand, the Falken Azenis FK520 is a UUHP tyre, made in Turkey, and got our rating of 72%. Its manufacturer, Falken, also replaced this tyre with a newer model, accessible here. Despite ranking lower than Goodyear, this tyre performed well in grip tests and was particularly impressive in straight aquaplaning tests. However, it struggled a bit more in curved aquaplaning, and it wasn't at the top in terms of comfort. This tyre is noted for good grip in both dry and wet conditions, aquaplaning resistance and low noise.

In mutual test comparisons, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 consistently placed better, ranking 2nd, 3rd, and 1st in various tests, compared to the Falken Azenis FK520's 8th, 6th, and 9th positions. So if overall performance in diverse test conditions is paramount, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 is the winner.

However, if specific aspects like straight aquaplaning resistance and handling on gravel are your focus, then Falken Azenis FK520 might serve you better. Therefore, it would be wise to consider your specific needs, driving style and conditions in which the tyre will be used most often before making a decision.
