Re: Which Tires?! (CivicHB_92)
i have to decide also. i really want the azenis because nothing else for the price gives you the pure grip and stiff *** sidewall. however the tread life is pure ****, and i also live in florida, where it rains a lot, and my car already hydro planes easy. With that said i have chosen the evs100's because they grip quite well and have equally as good wet traction, and can be had for 53 dollars in the size 195-50-15.

I would go with the ES100. They're a little cheaper and they have longer thread life. I really dont know how they handle in the rain, so i dont know about that aspect. I saw these tires first hand and the sidewalls are very stiff, almost identical to the Azenis. Do a search on these and you can see that they grip very well.

guys i sell tires and wheels for a living............tread life is not federaly controled like D.O.T. aproving.......tread life is only useful when conparing same brand tires..........712's aren't kumho's traction tires.......they are like nitto's 450's as far as market share goes.........dunlop's fm901's are a very over looked tire as far as traction goes but road noise and life kinda suck.........as with the falken's, they really can't be compared to any of these unless we're only talking $$$$$$$........everybody has different opinions on this subject but everybody also has different objectives too.....

Re: Which Tires?! (CivicHB_92)
i'm all about the yokohamas... they have pretty good wet traction. i have had the kumhos and they were nice, and my friends azenis are great on dry pavement, but not so good in the rain. and they dont last real long.
just my experiances

Go for the azenis... i wish i had gotten them again instead of switching over to avs es100's. The avs's are good but i rather take the grip of the azenis anyday.
