My days of burnouts is drawing to an end. :(

They look a LOT bigger than I thought they'd look - course, they'll trim down once mounted, perhaps.

Any other Azenis owners report a significant redux in mpg?




Compared to my wife's truck's 33x12.50 tires.


I'll miss sliding sideways at will, as the car does w/ the stockers...but the increased grip will be welcome!

They look like offroad tires for your RX-8. The is some crazy tread pattern.

Didn't notice a drop in MPG....did notice that burnouts were pretty much impossible

I'm hard enough on tires as it is.......

I've been impressed with the Azenis...I've had them on the track a lot this summer, and it looks like they will make a whole track season...better than I thought.

I was happy with the Azenis on my Miata years ago - figured I'd give these a shot. :D

I'm VERY excited to get 'em on the track next month.
