sorry no pics. i ordered them from http://www.tires.com (discount tire online). i ordered them monday and they arrived tuesday their warehouse distribution center was in dallas so that could be why i got them so quick. anyways i paid $70 each tire and they were offering free shipping. just one look at these suckers and they are FAT. they look so much bigger then the stock tires o_O/ i would take pics but im too lazy and ill try to get them mounted on tomorrow. i hope these tires are better then re730's.

 

nice.........

tj

 

trust me youll love em...i got mine put on fri and im just lovin them

 

may be went its time to get tires , ill give the azenis a try

I can't wait to get some, all I need now is a set of wheels to put them on, not to mention a car!

 

Got mine last week, and yeah, they are huge. Waiting on the SSR's to come in.

after getting an email from vulcan tire that they were on back order, I immediately canceled my order and bought some from discount tire for 70 a piece with free shipping.

peace,

I ordered my Azenis 2 weeks ago and just yesterday they were unloaded at a dock in Long Beach and sent on a truck to my local tire shop. They'll probably be here today or tomorrow, but I don't even have my car back yet so they'll be waiting for me.

Anyone have pictures of stock height R's with the Azenis, I want to see if the lower profile makes the car look like it needs to be lowered.

 

Floyd - Are you going to CMP this weekend? Obviously you won't have SSRs with Azenis, tho.

FINALLY SOMEONE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT I POST IN HERE HUHUHU!!!

anyways, did you bother getting the 7 dollar lifetime warranty by any chance? also, did you get 205/50/15s?

peace,

lyle

 

mines came in on sat, and they are wide, they're more like 215's .....to me they look like twice the thickness of the reo's. probably have them on this weekend...OH JOY!
....time for some hard cornering

 

Just order my 2 fronts today and its on the wayyyyyyyyyyy....

 

No, I won't be able to make this one. I will, however, be at Summit Point on Friday, May 3rd.

 

tire.com is awesome i also ordered mine on monday and just got them today. There a lot wider than the stock **** for a tire michelin's.

 

ya dood! i got mine today as well. from discount. 205/50/15. they look really wide!

 

quick question: will the 205/50's rub, if the car is lowered... please respond, no one ever answers this question.

 

Has anyone had any bad experiance with the Azenis? I'm trying to figure out what my problem is. My car tracks all over the road under boost ( right and left) and the handling is very sloppy. They are mounted with the correct side facing out and I went to get my alignment and it was perfect still. I'm gonna drop my tire pressure from 36 to 32 and see what this does. I also put on my roommates wheels with nitto 450's and teh problem went away. The nittos are some of teh worst tires I ever drove on btw. My roommate and I both have the same size rota wheels so it was a good comparison. Any info or suggestions?

 

their just sloppy tires thats all. =P some suggest its because we're fitting a tire thats almost 215 onto a 6" rim.

 

If these tires are so sloppy then why does everyone love them? Is anyone else experianceing this?

 

hybrid901, are you running a lsd? I assume you are. My experience w/ azenis aren't as good as everyone else on here but that's probably b/c they're looking for lateral grip and contact patch consistency while cornering rather than under heavy (boosted) acceleration. There are a few differences in the design of acceleration biased tires and road racing/autox counterparts. Nitto 450's generally suck b/c they don't "feel" (feedback, linear break-away characteristics, total lateral grip?) good and they don't wear as well as they should for the amount of grip they're giving but they hold up well to overpowering drag launches. While not being flat out radial drags, I think nitto is working toward superior straight line acceleration performance over corner carving prowess. Just what I think from personal exp.
