i've set it before and I'll say it again, falken azenis 615's are awesome, they don't last the longest but for the price who cares, most people will tell you once you drive on them you don't want to buy anything else

I got the Falken 452's and so far I am REALLY impressed. For a tire thats ALOT cheaper than my stock Bridgestone Potenza RE040. They are quiet, great traction dry and wet. I am really impressed with these tires and do not at all regret switching to Falken, which I'm pretty sure I'm gonna stick with. These tires are great.
EDIT* I guess I should mention they are Ultra high perf. summer tires that replace the st-115 Azenis and FK-451. Mine are the same size as yours ------------------ 2003.5 Titanium Grey Mazdaspeed Protege-2.0L 5spd Turbo 1996 Cavalier-2.2L 3psd(AT) |

you definitely need to pass on the 512's, GARBAGE. I would hold out for the azenis 615's if you can

if you want somethinmg cheap but somehwhat decent look into a Kumho ecsta 712, you will still be able to spin them up and slip compared to the aeznis. also look into Fuzion ZRi...Really good tire and very value priced. if you want a really good all season look into Toyo Proxies4, they won't be cheap but there damn good for an all season tire. oh and stay away from Hercules. |

Don't mean to undercut any business's here but check these prices out:
Falken512/452/615 on Special - C7Performance.com - Canada's Celica & Toyota enthusiast community / club Those include taxes. Doesn't include mounting and balance, so this should be taken into consideration when deciding. |
