i have a 94 EH2 and am about to order some 15" bronze rota circuit 10s. i plan on getting 205/50/15 tires. i like the falken azenis sports,but i heard that they wear pretty fast. i was looking at getting the falken ziex 512,it has a 360 treadwear,temp a,traction a. i know it is not as much of a performance tire like the azenis sport. i love the look of the azenis sport....can ya'll tell me how long they last,i don't really do that much driving,but want a tire that will last me a while sorry this is so long,but i tried a search.

 

I've had both tires and all i can say is they are night and day difference!!!

azenis =
512's =

there is no comparison in traction. i will say the 512's did last a bit longer, but not enough to be worthy of the traction you give up.

check out this thread for more information.

I had the Sports and I tore them up i less than 6 months......thats daily driving, no events and just messing on the street from time to time........most of the fact was that my rear alignment was off so those wore quickly....but they should last 8k to 12k miles depending on your driving style..

 

i had both, the ziex are nowhere as good as the azenis but they do last longer. If you have 0 camber then the azenis will last quite awhile

 

thanks for all of the comments guys,TinyCRX thanks for the link!!! one guy on your link said his Azenis lasted him 20,000 w/ constant rotation,that's not too bad,another guy said his only lasted 8-12,000 but he said his camber was off and i have a front and rear camber kit. how long is a tire w/ 360 treadwear expected to last?

 

My Azenis lasted about 18k but that was with daily driving and very little track time.

 

it all depends on the road conditions and your style of driving.

I really like my es100's... great traction and hold in 205-50-15 and great wet traction which is important on a daily driver!

i've had them about 8000 miles and i beat the **** out of them constantly! i've worn them about 1/2 way down so far. one down side to the es100's is that they can only be moved front to back... not rotated because they are directional...

the es100's are a little cheaper where i bought them (83 a pop vs. 93)

good luck!

 

remount them on diff rims....a true rotation I heard you can do tha tto azenis...and es100's...
