Default K1's on, and not a second too soon!

So i finally got around to getting the Azeni's mounted and balanced on the 15x7 K1's. the car responds MUCH quicker now than it did on my beat up re010's. it's almost as if i don't even have to steer, just THINK about steering, and it turns.

i knew my tires were balding before, just didn't know HOW bald they were. yikes.

oh well, they look great, and feel great. i couldn't be happier.

Is it just me, or are the Azenis bigger even in the same size as the other tire

it's not just you. Azenis are really meaty. My 205s are bigger than other 205s.

An 8th toe out and you'll turn even quicker without thinking...

Is that car lowered?

The tires look like they were eating the inside with some wicked camber.
