Hooboy. /me ducks

Yeah, they're great tires.

Loud though, because of the big tread blocks, but that's also why they're so sticky.

what can i say, theses tires are the **** i drove on them for my first track event at thunder hill and my car stuck to the ground like glue. can't say enough good things about these tires, the quality and price are unbeatable. you can use these tires for any of the above but just be aware that they will wear faster than normal street tires due to their soft compound. hope that helps a little

For the price they are the best. Only complaint is that they don't like to much heat. So on 90 and above track days they suck. But otherwise I can't complain.

I personaly don't like to ride around all day on them. I will switch to my all season for a little more comfort on the street.

i love my azenis as well..great traction in dry weather! not too bad on wet roads, but if it's raining hard or there is standing water on the road, watch out! hydroplane city! not for use in the snow.

Loud? You must not own a set.

They are not even close to loud.

Loud is Yokohama AVS intermediates. <---- NOW THAT's LOUD!!!!!!!!

seems to be a good tire to run for low cost and does good for daily/racing.

"I could use it for drag"

Probaly not the sidewall on these tires are pretty stiff also, while you will get better tractoin on these the say some Uniroyal Tiger Paws... I am not sure they would be a dedicated drag tire.

In a H22 hatch putting down some good power... the Azenis don't help that much (maybe a little, but if I dumped it past 4000, I can sit there just lighting them up, watching all of the rubber waste away)
