Default WooHoo! My Azenis finally came in!

I never realized how much wider they would be from stock. Looks like about an inch or so. I want to mount them sooooo bad, but I promised myself I would wait till my suspension came in. I can't wait to try these bad boys out. Hopefully everything comes in by the next track day, the 20th.

On another note, I picked up a Prothane motor mount kit. I'll install it tonight and post how they feel in conjunction with the ES kit.

Buying parts=
Having to work 6 days a week to buy parts=
ohwell...

Which mounts does the prothane kit do? You still need to save some money to buy me a beer....

Hey, did you want those Brembo bits?

TypeOne: thanks

Ben: Ya on my stockers. We get the same size wheels as the US model.

I just mounted mine today and here is what I have to say:

1) They are EXTREMELY sloppy when you first start to drive them. My stock Michelins XGT4 felt more "firm" during the drive.

2) They grip like a mad man. Took on and off ramps faster than I should have and I didnt hear any sign of tire squeal/squak. Car didnt lose control.

3) My car, on the highway, feels like it want to wander off in a certain direction.

4) It makes steering during highway speeds feel laggy. Im not even sure if thats the correct word.

I hope these tires lose that "mushy" feel after a certain mileage.

Im running 35PSI all the way around. I noticed that the tire isnt COMPLETELY on the ground. How did I observe this? Easy, after you stop driving, look at the tire. You will see by the dirt where it NORMALLY wheres out. This observation is more than assumption than fact.

Im hoping and Im almost sure that these tires will beef up after I put a few more miles on them.

I went from 35 psi to 32 in the front and stayed 35 psi in the rear, its has a nice feeling to it now just a hint of rotation but won't come around when lift throttle in a fast turn. Does anyone else have this psi set-up too?

Don't forget that these tires heat up and add pressure to the tire, I used to have 35 but after some quick drivin I git the temp up and the psi shot up to 38 and it felt a little too stiff.
