yeah. they look like pretty good tires. i was weary about trying them out, so i went with something else.

i'd vote the azenis, just cuz the price.

Yeah, thats why I bought them, I couldn't find anything but positive feedback about them and the price was great, AND they has the staggered sizes I needed.

Plus, how can 30 episodes of Pimp My Ride be wrong?


1. Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3
2. Continental ContiSportContact 2
3. Yokohama Advan Neova AD07
4. Michelin Pilot Sport PS2
5. Hankook Ventus R-S2 Z212
6. Dunlop SP Sport Maxx
7. Pirelli P Zero Rosso Asimmetrico
8. Toyo Proxes T1R
9. Bridgestone Potenza RE050A
10. BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KD
11. Kumho Ecsta MX
THANK GOODNESS THOSE CAME IN LAST!!! Horrible fucking tires, worst set I have ever owned, I have had better off brand wholesale discount brand-x type tires. They lasted MAYBE 5000 miles on my truck

oh man, is it too late to take them back?

Maybe someone else has had a better experience with them, but mine was horrible. Brian (Cobra4b) has had problems with Kumhos too.

That's what I run.. I couldn't think of what they were called.

Tread looks good and aggressive, and they perform well for the price in my opinion. I've used a lot of expensive tires, but these are just as well on the street as some of the more expensive brans I've used.

They perform better, but wear out more quickly.

Well that's usually the case... i just wanted to see actual tests if they're out there. Or if there's a site where i can search that up, that'd be great too.
