Default Falken Azenis Psi

Hey I have a 95' eg6 with a B20vtec motor pushing 181 hp. I just wanted to know if you guys knew what's the best psi to set the Azenis at for the 1/4 mile.

i really dont think it matters cause it is a road race tire. so the side walls arent going to give.

yupp, these tires have very hard sidewalls, not very good for drag racing.

we have used them for drag and found them to be one of the best radials aside from like a BFG street legal drag. we normaly set them to 18-20psi should work well.
we have run more then one mid 12sec pass with azenis on a all motor hatch.

I think 12 psi is too low but to each his own. I would also recommend anywhere from 18-20 psi, you should be able to pull off 2.1x 60' times.

I have a JDM Type R in my hatch (180hp/127tq). I run my Azenis at 20psi, heat them up with a 2nd gear burnout in the water.

60' 2.074
1/4 13.567
mph 102.5

I think Azenis are great tires for drag. Not the best, but deffinetly good!

BFG's are definately the best but for the price I havent used a better drag radial than Azenis. When I switched to 555r's(didnt go with BFG's because these are my street tires) my 60ft were actually the same as the azenis. The 555's were actually not as consistent as the azenis. I would do 2.1's all day long on the azenis and the 555's were 2.1-2.3. 555r's
