I would go with azenis. I had bth azenis and one af the ziex type of tires. the ziex weren't nearly as sticky as the azenis were. a lot of driters runs ziex's if that means anything to you.

I've owned both and there is no comparison. I used the Ziex for daily driving in the rainy season, and the Azenis for the track and the dry season. If you plan on autocrossing, don't waste your time or money on the Ziex.

ziex 512's are great snow and rain tires and good handling too for all-seasons, but if you're autocrossing, why handicap yourself with improper tires for the task?

hmm not to jack the thread, but...

I run Azenis on Si's for track use etc etc

Right now I have Nitto NT450s on my other Si's for daily driving, but I been thinking of picking up the Ziex 512 instead of the Nitto's....how do these tires compare....I love the Nittos, but the Ziex seem to be a lil cheaper...hehe
