Nitto 505. I think I am the only person in the world who owns these, I want to replace them with SO3's eventually, do SO3 owners like thier tires?? The Nittos are alright, nothing special.

I ran all last year on AO32R, yes the almighty RRrrrrrrrrr compounds, and yes on the street.
But now that the Azenis are available, I have run on the Azenis for almost a year now and will not change unless they become unavailable.. Azenis rule, especialyl for the cost

Someone please show me the 195-50-15 Falken Azenis, because even though I sell the Azenis in my shop I've NEVER seen this size.
On the street i run Khumo Supra Ecsta 712 205/45-16 and for the track Im using Falken Azenis 205/50-15. I think they used to sell 195/50-15 but Falken stop making them for the us market.

Probably the best tires I've bought yet for street use. Of couse they are alittle pricey...but I get good deals through DTC friends. I'd like to compare them with some Falkens in the future though.

i don't like my S-03's. When they break away or lock up, no warning what so ever (sound-wise). Plus they are HEAVY. I'll try the Yoko ES100 next time.

I use toyo proxxess all season. Not looking to win races on the street.

I change them to aziens the night before autox. Or change to hoosiers at the track.

P zeros in the summer, there is no were to race around here, so there is no need for any thing better. And Blizzacks (think thats spelt right) in the winter on the stock wheels.

How come you didn't just ask me if I had any pictures of the wheels? I don't have any, I am stuck out in OK with no resources of my own, meaning no digital camera. I wasn't trying to lie about something I have, I just made an error in doing so. After returning to this topic to see what everyone else was using I then saw I was indirectly being called a liar. Even without a camera in effort to prove I have no need to lie, I just went outside to get the readings off my tires. In mistake here are the readings 195/55/R15 M+S, in error I also see the are ZIEX and not Azenis, I never checked my tires so it is my error in reading, but I wasn't trying to lie about it It would be nice to be <U>notified</U>when I'm mistaken.

I had the Azenis put on one afternoon, after driving I thought my car was god, ran into a tree and remembered it was still a Civic.


195/50/15 Falkens

Someone please show me the 195-50-15 Falken Azenis, because even though I sell the Azenis in my shop I've NEVER seen this size.

As far as I know the closest thing to it is the size I run - 205-50-15.

SHAUNTS99:

I wasn't calling you a liar man. I simply said that since the Azenis came out and since I've been selling them that I've never seen the 195-50-15 size and that I'm pretty sure they never made them. At no point did I ever say that "SHAUNTS99 is a liar!" or anything like that.

I figured you were mistaken, that's all.

BTW: You should try the Azenis - totally different tire from the Ziex ZE502. I had some Ziex ZE502 back in the day when I ran 16'' wheels and while they're decent tires, they're no match in terms of dry grip for the Azenis.



Calm down man. Nobody accused you of trying to be deceptive.
