Default azenis on SI wheels...

im about to order a set of azenis for my SI wheels. I own a 99 si. Right now my car is stock height, im planning on just dropping it enough to get rid of wheel gap, which should be 1.5-2 inches. If i get 205/50/15, are they going to rub or they will do fine for my future drop? im very excited to order these tires! haha

The RT615 doesn't come out in that size until november according to their website. None of the other "azenis" come in that size to my knowledge, except maybe the now discontinued versions.

You'll be fine. I have a 1.8" drop (eibach sportlines) on my 96 coupe with SI's and they never rub.

i hate people like you....always talk about how unsafe and stupid people are......you make it seem like you drive the speed limit at all times, never go above 5k rpms and never take a turn going faster than usual.....so whats the point of suspension work? to make your car look lower?

you hate people like me why?

so going above 5k rpm is considered racing?
Why would I take a turn faster then my car can handle?
95% of suspension work that people do on here is to make your car look lower, and some handling
Find out, out of how many people that have a lowered car or "suspension set up" go to the track on weekends

Thanks for coming out though

no but im asking dont you push your car? and thats bullshit never taking it past what it can handle. then how do you know what your car can handle, obviously you can take a turn faster than the speed limit. Whatever its just going to be back and forth between me and you...go ahead and think im a ricer and ill think youre an idiot.
About suspension work, im sure many people want a stiffer ride SO that they can take their car past its previous limits....if i wanted a lower ride then i would just buy some ebay coilovers.

Why would I push my car, there is nothing to push it's a god damn civic
You know when your losing traction when your tires start squeling, and I have a great feel for my car so.., Who said anything about taking a turn faster then the speed limit

Hm, I don't know what that is. But what's this?

http://www.falkentire.com/rt615_sizes.html

And this?

http://www.vulcantire.com/azenis_rt615_t.htm

One thing I can say about Discount Tire is that I will probably never buy from them again.

I'm going for some Kumho Ecsta SPTs for now. These will be good street tires anyway. For track tires I'll probably have to suck it up and get some 16 inch rims. Sucks. Given the choice, I'd rock 14 inchers but my brakes wont clear and there's not much performance tire selection in that size.

the hole point of buyin good suspension nd sticky tires is to push ur car to the limit but in a safe way especially when u live in a aera that got mountains nd alot of turns that were the fun starts not just racin in a straight line

I've had them on my car for 2 months now - my previous tires were the Azenis Sport (first version) also in 205/50/15

I'm not sure what you are talking about.......
