315/35 20 Tire Review Highlights

Falken Azenis FK520 rated 87% while driving a BMW X5 e70
Driving on mostly country roads for 100 average miles
Initial 100 mile review of the Falken Azenis 520s has left me impressed. Having just ditched the Dunlop Sport Maxx GT RFTs that came on my E70 X5 when I purchased it, the following was apparent - Review is based on intial subjective impressions.

1) The ride was significantly improved on dual carriageways and undulating country roads. The perceived feedback is that it feels more compliant and better damped than the RFTs.

2) The wet grip and traction was impressive. I couldn't notice a difference in braking performance on wet corners on country roads. Turn in felt responsive and was expecting some understeer at 50mph on my local S-bends, but it tracked very predictable on throttle. It hasn't spun up any of the corners on aggressive throttle applications.

Time will tell on how long these will last, but if I'm able to get 12000 miles before I need to replace them, I'll be more than satisfied. My use case of living in a hilly area with loads of NSL roads means that they wear will be quite high due to the constant braking and acceleration.

I was quite impressed with the ZE914s I had on my Celica 8 years ago, so if these perform as well as they did, I'll be buying them again. Will revise this review with wear.

RoadX RXMOTION U11 rated 67% while driving a BMW X5
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 spirited miles
I put these on my x5 as a much cheaper option to the pirelli’s they replaced…half to price for 275/315 offsets. Would I put them on my m4? Probably not, but for any sport suv they are just fine. To expect these to perform the same as something twice the price is unrealistic. They doing the job I need them for and they look great. I’m not racing my x5 but they honestly don’t feel bad at higher speeds. I’d consider them again.

Infinity Ecomax rated 94% while driving a BMW X5 e70
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 average miles
bought a pair of these Infinity run flat tires for the rear of my X5 to replace the Dunlop's that were on it and although they have only been on the car since September i am very impressed so far. They are quiet and seem to be quite grippy too for £165 a piece compared to a more expensive brand? I'm going to replace the fronts when needed with a pair of the same brand,,, Would i buy again?? YES most definitely, well worth the money i feel....

Kinforest KF550 UHP rated 49% while driving a BMW X5
Driving on mostly motorways for 16000 easy going miles
I bought these tires for my X5 4.8is because the old tires were worn and there was a bulge. I didn’t splurge on premium tires because my intial intention was to flip the car and make money. Long story short, I ended keeping the car and stuck to the tires. About 25,000km, these tires were well worn to the legal limit. It performed well in the dry. Perform almost as well as a premium tires in dry but dangerous in the wet. The noise level was a little noisy but not too bad. The wet weather performance was apalling and disappointed in the tread life. I would not recommend this tires and would not buy again. There were quite expensive in the first place. I would instead try a different tires

Nitto Motivo rated 80% while driving a BMW X5 e70
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 average miles
I drive a bmw x5 50i (2011) that i've had about a month and the previous owner put Nitto Motivo tires on it. As i've not had a lenghty experience my opinions are limited; however, the real reason i took time to write this was to advise against them if snow performance is of any importance to you. I live in MN and these tires provide no lateral or longitudinal grip in snow. They weren't designed to, but they're an "all season" so....though you should know.

Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 rated 97% while driving a BMW X5 3.0d Sport
Driving on a combination of roads for 3 spirited miles
We drive a BMW X5 35d xDrive with the M Sport package. 275/40/20 front/315/35/20 rear. The stock Continentals were worn out in 28,358 KMs. After BMW and Continental decided they were not going to do anything for us, we installed a set of Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4. The vehicle has never driven so well, significant improvement in steering response, handling, braking, ride quality etc…. Dry or Wet an excellent tire. Although we only have 5,000KMs on the tires now, we can say, our X5 never drove this well when new with the Conti’s on it. Great job Michelin! Thanks Tire Review for all the videos with full track testing! Keep up the good work!

Jinyu YU63 rated 51% while driving a BMW X5
Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 average miles
Fitted to x5 I bought by garage and went in for service and mechanic laughed at me for having these fitted as on inspection the inner sidewall was delaminating and potentially causing a blowout with disastrous results. I hear these have a sidewall issue and indeed I feel lucky to have ditched them before they ditched me

Fullway HP 108 rated 85% while driving a Chevrolet camaro
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 spirited miles
Although i cant give a wear rating due to only having them 5k miles, they are really good in dry and wet roads. I have this on my 2013 camaro ss. I do drive it a bit aggressive aswell as living in gravel road i probably wont be able to give an accurate wear rating through its whole life. I will definitely buy these again.

Dunlop SP Sport Maxx rated 0% while driving a BMW X6 M
Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 average miles
Driving in dry conditions and little to no issues as soon as it’s wet they are dangerous! Exiting islands and car loses grip and actually slides on all 4 wheels! Tire wear is hopeless 30% worn in 3000 miles only, car just had first MOT so mileage exact
