First of all I wanted to say how much I love them and how awesome they handle. I think they even handle well in the rain, thats just my opinion. The only problem I have is they stick to everything. Ive gotten three flats so far because they pick up nails and screws and stick into them. Also does anyone rub with a 215. The fronts dont rub at all but the back two when Im ripping it around a U-turn or entrance ramp, my body roll takes over and I here this obnoxious rubbing sound. Anything I can do to prevent the rubbing. I know the nails and screws are just unlucky but the rubbing sucks. Thanks and cheers on Thanksgiving
I hate mine in water! if u go through an intersection and turn a little while going through the water they will just slide.. also they are noisy but who cares about that
. Happy thanks giving .. sorry i have 205s I think 215s will not have rubbing on 15s, according to past posts in the itr forum

What size are the tires? ive got 205/55/16's and im dropped 1 3/4 and i rub alot, thats because i need like a 205/45 tire, so an oversized tire could be your problem right there

i dont rub inside the fender wall. I rub on the outside, its only like 1/4 of rub, ill send out pics when i get my camera up and running. Peace. By the way, there 215/45/16's.
I can't speak from personal experience...but I have done lots of reading and talked to a ton of people that have these tires. The common conclusion that I have come up with is that for auto x and MINOR race situations, they are the best bang for the buck. They are supposed to be super sticky. But, too many people have told me that if you race on 'em for too long and they get over heated, they will start to get slippery.

I have 205/50/15's and they work out well. If you want to Auto X and race on the street or the track, these tires are the best for the price. Be careful when driving in the rain, there are a lot of flat spots on the tires.

Any tire when over heated gets 'slippery', not just the Azenis.
At the autox club I drive in, the Azenis don't seem to have a problem when it gets hot. On the street I doubt you could overheat it though, so for street cars it's a moot point.

if you have azenis and you have 16" rims
they are 215/45/16 not 205's
they only make one size for 16's and its 215/45
