Falken Tires to Launch New Starting Lineup in Q1 2016
Falken Tires, the official tire of Major League Baseball, will launch four new products within the next month or so, featuring capabilities ranging from competitive off-road to all-season high performance. The new models are: Azenis FK450 A/S, Sincera SN250 A/S, WildPeak A/T3W and WildPeak M/T.
I’m no stranger to Falken as I’ve been using their Azenis FK453 summer performance tires for over eight months now, and they’re still gripping as well as they were on day one. Recently, I had a really bad puncture (bang and a hiss!) on the left rear tire while on the freeway, but the car remained completely stable, allowing me to safely exit and find a nearby parking lot. There’s more to good tires than just speed and grip — safety and build quality are big factors too!
Joining its summer performance sibling is the Azenis FK450 A/S, which will offer uncompromised handling and high-speed performance for luxury sports car owners in both wet and dry conditions. Expect the same confidence-inspiring grip and comfort you’ve come to know and love from the Azenis model line.
The Sincera SN250 A/S is for those wanting a high-mileage all-season touring tire. The well-rounded SN250 will boast extended tread life, quietness and comfort. This is the reliable workhorse for all but the most extreme of conditions.
Off-road enthusiasts have two new WildPeak models to choose from: the versatile A/T3W and the race-tested M/T.
The A/T3W is an all-terrain tire that’s also optimized for on-road comfort and stability. It’ll take just about anything your road trip adventure can throw at it, and is well-mannered for daily commuting or errands.
The M/T hardly needs an introduction as it’s been winning off-road competitions for a while now, but this is the first time that consumers will be able to purchase the race-proven mud-terrain tires. The tread pattern is slightly different than the competition version to allow for more streetable characteristics; other than that, this is basically the same tire that the professionals use.
There’s something for everyone with Falken’s upcoming product launch. Visit FalkenTire.com to learn more.
