Do they ride/feel the same as the 15's? what about grip? Give me your feedback guys.

 

depends on tire size

 

225/45ZR17

 

im sorry but how the hell do you figure youll be able to fit that on your accord? those are wrx sizes not to mention how much your speedo will be off.
+ azenis run big anyway, their 205s are like 215s

I just got them mounted today for my 6th gen accord. The tire diameter is only .01" more than stock for a 6th. I will be able to tell you how they feel after this weekend.

 

thanks man let me know what you find.

 

Are we talking about shoes?? tires size runs big? i work at a tire place and a tire size is a tire size, and my friend had 225 18's on his accord and they fit like a glove.

 

I have 225/40-18 on my accord which is a 6th gen v6 and they never rub and still ride pretty well. They are not Azenis but i was noting that it is possible to fit 225/40's on an accord. edit for spelling.

its like running shoes nike and reebok's are made different and fit different, like i were a 12 in nike and a 11 1/2 in reebok...its the same concept.

 

Grip is night and day, ride is a lot harsher than my 15's since it has a stiffer sidewall and 45 sidewall. No tire in its price range can compare in dry traction. I also measured the width of the Azenis vs. another 225 tire on a rim with the same width and the Azenis was 5-7mm wider.

thanks man!

 

Yep... the shoulder is much more squared off than other tires, making the tread width wider than a comparable size tire.
