Azenis for BS
#3
Doesn't look like the Azenis comes in 245/35. 245/40 would keep you at about stock circumference...so would 275/35. Or you could try 235/40 or 265/35 if you want a little gearing advantage and don't mind having the shorter tires for everyday use (with speedo error and such).

Wow, are the advans that much better than the azenis for a street tire?? at $120+ more per tire, I might be better off picking up a used set of OEM wheels and buying some dedicated race tires

In the long run, it will probably be less hassle to have dedicated competition wheels/tires.

Good point, Clyde. If the original poster is planning on running in B Stock, I'd suggest finding a cheap set of OEM takeoff wheels and buying V710s before I'd recommend buying Advans, which are just as expensive as the V710s yet slower. The Advans are great street tires, but they're like bringing a knife to a gun fight in a class where R compounds are allowed.
If the OP doesn't want to mess with R comps and spare wheels, then I'd just suggest the Azenis. If you have to run against any fully prepped B Stock cars, you won't really be at any more of a disadvantage with the Azenis versus the Advans, but you'll have a lot more money in your pocket.

Thanks for all the help. I think I'll go with the Azenis this year and learn about the car. Over the winter I can pick up some oem rims and 710's. BTW, I assume 4 extra wheels/tires can fit in the car?
