Anyone ever buy a set of these tires? They look pretty sticky and for a decent price they seem pretty legit. ---

I had them for a summer when I used to Auto-x. I loved them, especially when I’d drive hard. They never failed me. They do wear extremely fast though. I’d still recommend them. :tup: ---

Had them on my Fiero for autocrossing/track day/limited street use and loved them. +1 on the fast wear but what do you expect for a 200 treadwear tire? ---

I have them on my corvette which is my weekend worrier. Love them. I currently run a 285 front and a 295 rear, but I just changed my set up to a 275 star spec front 335 555r2 rear. I might try to run a 315 in the front just for shits. ---

Awesome tire, I have them on the TT. They are pretty soft/sticky so the treadwear is pretty shitty if you beat on them. ---

They’re a pretty good tire…but in the past couple years even better tires in the same category have come out. I just replaced my last set of Azenis with Dunlop Star Specs and love these new ones. They don’t get as greasy on track(road course, not boring strip 😛 ) as the Azenis will…and for only a few $$ more a tire (In my size at least). Bridgestone RE-11s and Kumho Ecsta XSs are also in this Extreme Summer Performance group. These are all better than the Azenis in the wet too. ---

+1 on the Kumho XS I was an azenis fanboy until the XS came out.
