i like the o.e tires thats what i put back on my 04, honda put those tires on for a reason, and it works great in the rain too, they are 150 a piece but i rather be safe than sorry.

azenis have more grip, cheaper, wider

but, they are worse in the rain, and they last longer.

If you live in LA, you shouldn't have a problem with rain, it rains 15 days in the whole year usually.

For wet conditions many people have given their approval to the Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3.

615 is great tires, but i would personally go with MX kumho over 615.

first thing first, are you on stock rims?
