For sale here in craigslist san diego

http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/pts/769466557.html

as many have said...not worth it.

$690?!!! No thanks for me.

They may be rare, but they're pieces of rebadged crap. Kumho tires are garbage as well. Those lug nuts are cheap. Spline drive FTL. Not worth 690. More like 300 shipped. LOL

Possibly the worst purchase I have ever made performance wise. These things are mad heavy for 16s! Oh and btw hes got the wrong size tires on there so you will need new tires anyways. You need 205/45/16 for 16" rims on our cars.

haha i have kumho asx tires and they have done me well for about a year and a half or about 32k miles so far.

The seller is a moron. He did no research when mounting new tires to try to match the stock size.

They may last long, but the lateral grip sucks.

well i don't go 'touging' or autocrossing, as well. as of right now, it is a means of getting from point A to point B.

with that said, i need to replace them this fall. I was thinking of trying out yokohama s.drive tires. anyone ever tried them?

if you wanna buy them buy them.

i think they look really nice.

If you want a good performance oriented tire for cheap, get Falken Ziex's.

or he could just buy these and not have to worry about buying new tires for a while.

i have read some bad reviews for falken ziews

Read my post up above? He will need new tires or else he will rub lowered or stock height. 50 profile is too big for our cars if your running 16s. You need a 45 profile tire. Thats what TRD recommends too. I have a sticker that came with TRD wheels that shows proper tire size as well as max pressure in tires.

are you sure he will rub at stock height? someone brought in a corolla s that had factory installed trd rims and wheels with the same size tires and they havent rubbed. i even asked him about it

you should be able to run 50 on 16s.

hmmm...interesting Well on top of rubbing issues, it will throw off the speedometer as well as the odometer.

you can get those calibrated at a dealership...i think even scangauge2 will do it for you...


edit: it will recalibrate the display on scangauge not on your dash gauges. but it will only be off by like 3mph at 60 or something...

their TRD but man... is that one ugly rim

Bah they are not ugly at all! They are just way too heavy. I think they look quite good.

lol because you have one

Yeah, get those, i had them on my Elantra and was getting all sort of grip ... :burnout:

I wouldn't have bought them if I didn't they looked good. Trust me they look good Fat lip with fat spokes. Looks good on my silver car.

lol nah dont have a trd muffler or short shifter. Wouldn't mind a trd muffler if the price is right, short shifter is no use to me, at least not right now...but I'm still a whore.

You mean Azenis.... Ziex's last time I checked were all seasons.

My buddy has 912s on his car and they lock up too easily under moderate braking.

Oh, I never said I wanted to get em. I just posted cause after looking on craigslist for awhile, it was the first time I had seen these.

Get Ziex if you're cheap. Get Azenis if you're still cheap but have a little more money to spare for performance. LOL I'm getting the Azenis next. The sidewall on those things are super thick and tough. You can run them somewhat flat I've heard with no side effects. The tire flex in the corners is reduced dramatically.

i don't think im gonna run azenis for everyday use..lol. yokohama s.drives are the next tires on my rolla.

+1

They are more quiet than my previous ones too. Also, they are not too soft nor too hard... I do some nasty turns but the tires hold up more than my suspension does so they are decent for me...
