What do the GODs from TIRE RACK say. I need new tires for my EVO. I loved the ADVANS but dont want to spend 212.00 What do you guys suggest for tire that is comperable to the ADVANS with a STRONG SIDEWALL. ANy help?

 

The Falken Azenis have an extremely stiff sidewall. Plus they look great and have plenty of grip. Also they dont break the wallet.

 

I also vote for falken azenis

 

falken azenis are good tires, but be careful of the heat buildup. They get very greasy when hot, this is when I autocross so I can't imagine how they feel on the track.

You might also consider toyo RA tires.

 

Lots of local auto crossers run the Azenis. They are a great tire for the price, for me though, I have been on the search for something with a good stiff sidewall but not so much weight. The azenis are like 29lbs or something??

 

Does anyone know of a place these are sold online?

thanks,

Problem with the Azenis is they are asemetrical... you cant flip them on the wheel for purposes of rotation. Since you want a cheaper tire, it's probably safe to say that you want to be able to rotate them for purposes of longevity.


PS I loved them on my Type R though...
