Nexen N3000

Anyone use these tires? i got these tires with the rims i just picked up and was wondering about them. can't find any reviews on them. mind you i have Azenis ST115's on my BBS's. i will be changing the tires out for Azenis RT615's once the weather gets better.

Not to rain on your parade, but why on earth would you buy RT-615's? The Z1 Star Spec is only about $30 more per tire and will outperform the 615 easily.

not really raining on my parade. i like Falken's had good experience with them. Dunlop's are amazing too. i'll look into them, especially since i will be getting track time and alot more autox time this year.

Definitely go with the Dunlops then. The Falkens have been far surpassed by the new generation of tires. The 615's are ok for autocross; you can win local events, but they're not competitive on the national scene. The Dunlops should pick you up at least 1/2 second on a 60 sec. course. For track days, the Falkens are awful. They overheat and get greasy very quickly. You might get one or two good laps out of them and then you're just sliding around the rest of your run.
