Pics soon as I get a camera... but until that day...



Ohhhhh god these tires are so badass. They ride smooth as a baby's ass, even with my suspension and shit. Sooooo gooood.

how much

[SpottedCow]

Azenis' are pretty cheap pricewise... I'd guess around $120-140 each.

How good are they in the rain?

[Kevin325i]

They're supposed to be quite crappy in the rain. That's their downfall. And you also get about 10k on them if you're lucky. But damn everyone at the auto-x loves them.

What size of tire, P235 50 16, P245 40 17, P255 35 18?

Do you notice a difference in braking as well as acceleration and handling?

Do tell...

[OzzyBimmer]

How do they perform on the tracks? like how long do you think they last and how grippy are they?

[triggrhaapi]

grippy- very

wet - this is so cal who gives two shits

price- 580 for the set

braking - much much better

accelleration - same, just a 325 after all...

handling - sidewalls are very very very very stiff... turn in is crisp as hell. Love them for that. The car changes direction very very fast without even so much as a chirp. Good god are they good.

Nice tires man. I also see that you have a mystery chip, tell more. Sorry for going off topic.

[triggrhaapi]

it's a mystery chip. god knows what it is cuz I'm not tearing the ECU open just to find out. Came on the car.

[Autotechnica]

As Kevin mentioned already, they are great tires for track/auto-x. However, tire tread is very poor like most high performance tires (look at the RA1).

If you don't track/auto-x your car, I'd say the tires are wasted. You're better off buying something with a better tread rating for the street. My racing buddies use these up in just under 1 season, ouch!

the sti's come with them... they are NICE!

[Kevin325i]

I thought the STi came with some Bridgestone Potenza S0-3s just like about every high performance car.

[triggrhaapi]

I'm a canyon road regular

by canyon road regular I mean two or three times a week. Trust me, they are NOT wasted.

Yep, that's what they come with here in Ontario too. Never seen Falkens on any stock car from the dealership. I have used them before. Unfortunately, at the time I didn't do any track driving and I really did waste them. Ate them up on the street in 1.5 seasons. Great tires nonetheless.
