i need tires
 

i want some sporty tires for street use and autox.

Hankook RS2, Khumo MX, or Falken Azenis

Gforce sport dammit :gay:

In comparison though. I have some gforce kdws and for the money it sounds like azenis are the better tire even if they do get a little greasy. I'm not switching mine out or anything though, they're still a pretty good tire.

i know they are good, but for the price....eh, the three i recommend are the cheapest you'll find and the top performers.


but read this and draw your own conclusions:

-1 I hate my KDWs

I like my azenis rt-615's, RS2s are not bad either.

I just bought these...

I haven't tracked the car or even raced it on these tires. I can see them sucking. With a treadwear of 400, they're obviously not that sticky. I also happen to have 17" wheels, that changes everything.

My friend has RS2's (15" 94R), He tracks and AutoX's all summer, he's on his second or 3rd year of w/ the same RS2's and is usually FTD or within 1/2 a second... Also his wife drives as well (and she sometimes beats him) and as often.

For the price the RS2's are a good 'all around' tire.

I went w/ the Azenis (and I really want to beat that MR2 this year) because I also have a new set of Bridestone 009's that nobody wants, so I'll just run those on the street.

When I mentioned to my friend I was picking up tires, (he has been autox for @ least 10yrs I am a n00by) I mentioned the Azenis, he insisted on the RS2's, when I showed him the price difference between the two...He was surprised...Azenis arrived today :)

I went with the RS-2's and am happy so far. That's not saying much as it sits in the garage more than anything..

who has a good price on rs-2's (for my sister).

wow, thats a pretty smokin deal. I should get those and mount em to my stock daisies for daily use so i can put some Kuhmo slicks on the heliums

That price makes me want to sell my stuff, buy some nickel 6uls and get the 615s.

I've never used the Kumho MX's, but I liked my experiences with the other two...I'd prolly go azenis again...but I might pick up some kooks just because they are cheaper.

The RS2's were 60 ea at the same size/site...



I thought we were SOL on the 6UL's until August?

We are.

so im either goin with azenis or rs2. what size is closest to stock on the azenis. i have daisys

both have a 195/60/14, close enough so it wont mess with the speedo much.

I have the RS-2s on my daisy's I like them, wouldn't mind comparing the 14" Azenis though, I have those on my 16s...hehe
