Falken will continue to offer its dealers and consumers tyres for all road and weather conditions this summer. Whether they’re lorry, EV, ultra, super-ultra high performance, motorsport or off-road tyres – the summer product portfolio combines safety, grip, comfort and high performance!
The current summer line up includes the brand new Falken AZENIS RS820, the new generation of super-ultra high performance tyres designed for ambitious sports car drivers. Striking the perfect balance between dry handling in sporty driving and safety in wet conditions in everyday life, they are the ideal summer tyres. Falken’s newcomer is to be available in 40 sizes from series 30 to 45 with 19 to 21 inch diameters for speeds of up to 300 km/h to start with. Shortly after its official launch, the AZENIS RS820 celebrated its premiere and was nominated for “Tyre of the Year” by the Tyre Technology International Awards for Innovation and Excellence.
The Falken e. ZIEX is available in 29 dimensions in series 40 to 65 with 15 to 21 inch diameters and was originally developed by engineers for electric vehicles. But the e. ZIEX is not only interesting for electric cars, it also for drivers of internal combustion engine vehicles for whom fuel efficiency and environmental performance are important. Not long after it launched in 2023, it won accolades from the independent testers of the auto motor sport (AMS) magazine: with a rolling resistance coefficient of 5.7 kg/t, the e. ZIEX took first place in the category of efficiency against two premium competitors.
The Falken AZENIS FK520 is an important part of the Falken range. The popular UHP summer tyre comes in 129 dimensions, from 17 to 21 inch diameters in series 30 to 65. The tyre achieved an excellent result in the same test by the “auto motor und sport” trade magazine. Particular praise was given to its good grip in wet conditions, its safe dry handling and its quiet, comfortable rolling performance. The Falken tyres succeeded in making a positive impression in terms of price too, with the second-lowest retail price.
The Falken ZIEX ZE320 also meets all requirements: in 60 sizes ranging from 16 to 18 inch diameter, the tyre performs in series 45 to 65, producing astounding effects such as fantastic noise reduction thanks to several technologies.
Taking top place is the first all-weather tyre, the EUROALL SEASON AS220 PRO, which was developed specifically for vehicles that are all about performance. The all-rounder is suitable for speeds up to 270 km/h. The Falken favourite is available in 54 sizes from 17 to 21 inch diameters in series 35 to 65.
As announced and promised, there is something for all road conditions, including more demanding terrain, both for heavy pick-ups and SUVs: the WILDPEAK R/T 01 is the ideal tyre for every off-road track. During development, the engineers focused on appropriate profile design and structure by combining the best features from its predecessors, the A/T and the M/T model. The R/T model from Falken is available in eight sizes with 17 to 20 inch diameter from series 55 to 70.
To round off the range, Falken is adding the LINAM VAN 01 to its portfolio. The robust summer tyre for transporters and vans is available in 37 sizes in series 55 to 82 in 12 to 17 inch diameter with the speed index R / S / T / H. The LINAM VAN01 wins over customers with a considerably prolonged service life, increased safety, and exceptional performance on wet and rough roads.
As is the case every year, readers await the results of the AUTO BILD tyre test with great anticipation. The AUTO BILD magazine has once again this year taken a close look at various tyres in differing dimensions and models, revealing which tyre actually delivers on its promises. The latest summer tyre test looked at more than 50 summer tyres in the dimension 225/40 R18, including the Falken ZIEX ZE320.
Falken Tyre Europe GmbH's summer promotion is taking place in 17 countries this year. Customers who purchase a set of Falken summer or all-season tires (four from 16 inches, excluding truck tires) between March 15 and May 31, 2025, will receive a fuel voucher. Participants also have the chance to win other attractive prizes, including a short holiday at a Center Parcs location of their choice for up to six people.
Falken Motorsports is starting the 2025 season with fresh vigour and drawing on a strong combination of experience and new talent. With three new additions to the driver line-up and the tried-and-tested turquoise-blue Porsche 911 GT3 R (992), the team is once again taking on the challenge of the legendary Nürburgring-Nordschleife with a brace of the race-winning car. After a total of five overall victories and several podium finishes, Falken Motorsports snatched the prestigious NLS Speed Trophy last year. The goal for 2025 is clear: to fight for top positions again especially at the 24-hour race.
