best tire for daily driving is azenis, best tire for street/track use is advan a032r, best tire for track use is hoosier. thats my opinion.

I've got Yokohama AVS ES100 205/50/15, my very first performance tire. So far so good! Nice stiff shoulder, quiet ride, adequate grip dry/wet, and treadwear is 280.

My bro has Falken Azenis on a set of wheels that he only uses for autox, I've never drove it with wheels/tires on. Last time he ran he won 1st in our street mod division.

Falken Azenis = awesome autox tire

But about to save money on a set of 032R so the azenis will be my summer set.

But parent starting to complain about the tire in garage, snow tires, OEM, azenis, and a set of steelies waiting for 032R.

The tread life on the Azenis aren't awesome. I'd say about every 8-10k miles you would have to change them. I myself dont really drag/road race and they are pretty worn. Hope this helps

Before the Act hd clutch was put in, the nitto drag radials 555r's were awesome!

Now after the new clutch it just bites every gear and doesn't pull like it used to,

very confused?
