well i'll tell you this much about azenis, it was pooring hard and i was going below speed limit. I almost hydro planned a few times, went straight home. didn't need to take a chance, don't know how the advans are. don't get me wrong, i love the azenis and i will get them again, just scary in the rain.

I recently orderd some Kumho 712 (for the street) and Azenis (for the track) because I was tired of replacing the expensive Bridgestone Potenza RE730's. Those RE730's are awesome tires to say the least, did great for a searson of autocross and daily use. Now, I just don't need that good for everyday use since I'll throw the Azenis on when I'm at the track.
