I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Banzai, didn't you post that you were getting those Advans? Neovas or something? I'm shopping around for tires too now and I think I'll be budgeting a lot in that area. I was going to ask this same basic question, I'm glad you posted this.

if you are worried about tire wear, don't buy these. i have them and the wear like garbage. i'll never buy them again
the new and slightly improved...don't piss me off, and i won't f#*k with you!!! *gggrrrr*

The Azenis was never meant to be a long-lasting tire...

yea, they were rated for about 8-10,000 miles tops. They stuck real well though.

Toby - I've had Falken Azenis which the op is talking about, but I had the Advan Neovas on those rotas for about a month. The tires were awesome, best set so far. I hated the way the wheels fit/size of tire looked. I had 195/55/15, and thats too big of sidewall for how low I like my car. The tires got an A+ from me though. Might try to find some again in a 50 series

Thanks Banzai, that's the same review I've been finding everywhere else. I think I may go with these to start. I'm sure they're not bad tires, just wanted to hear an opinion from someone who isn't biased.
