I run those tires..pretty good all around tire...They can be had for much cheaper. Check out vulcantire.com

What would you be doing with your car? Daily driving,track days,autocross,etc.? The reason I ask,consider the daily driving/autocross choices; Hankook rs3's,Bridgestone re-11's,Dunlop star specs,Toyo r1r.All great tires.Some of which are currently on forever backorder (Hankook,Toyo).I've used all but the Dunlops,and they were all great,RS3's being my favorite.Never tried the Azenis,at least not in the last 10 years,but they were awesome back in the day.

the 912s...in that size too?



its my dd/slowly being retired to weekend street car...no autox....used to have the star specs and being forced to use them in incorrect weather is unfortunate....and scary... and i was reeally likeing the revweiw on the rs3s...but seem outof stock...

so i huess a uhpas tire

dunlop direzza dz101, just bought them, hook pretty good in wet and dry. Hooked pretty good at the 1/4 mi too..

stick with the smaller tire.. my opinion.

I hate the 912s, they wore way to fast and grip like crap. I like the 512's way better abou the same ware but gripped a ton better. An I think there cheaper.

summer tire??

potenza re-11's.......
