Ok. I placed an order last Friday and was told that they were out of stock in which it will take 4-6 weeks.

So I cancelled my order from tires.com

Did you get the Falkens from another site?

I went to America's Tire/Discount Tire store and they ordered it directly from Falken. If you order online then they take it from their warehouse stock and that is on back order. Or call Falken directly.

Good Luck,

America's tire company is same as Discount tire co. They just call them america's on the west coast.. My 98 R in Michigan actually had Discount on it, when I moved to LA had to change it.

I called Yoshi's favorite tire company - America's and they had stock on Falken Azenis. But they quoted me $95.99

Do they match internet prices?

I paid $62 from America's in Glendora. The great thing about it is that I didn't have to pay for shipping, like if I had ordered it online. I think every store is different some charge for shipping, some charge their own price, and some charge the same price as online and no shipping. I don't know how they operate, but I have seen different combos for pricing from different stores.

The 95.99 must have been for the 215/45R16 size b/c that's about how much I paid for the 16" size. And yes, they do match internet prices. When I go my first set, the salesguy went into the backroom and did an internet search on various online tire stores.

Hey Will:
can you measure the tread depth on the outside and inside of the tyre? I forgot where, but I heard that the azenis has built in camber. Even after some hard track and autox's, I just noticed that the inner tread is noticeablely lower than the outside.

thanks

I hate all of you who got Azenis, they were backordered when I tried to get them *sniff*

Had to settle for some crappy RE730's.

But do not be mistaken, reparations will be made by those of you who got Azenis, I say cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war

Sorry for the poor pic quality..





It was simular on the outside vs. inside. ~1/4" grove depth. Even though the pics don't show it.
