Not sure if I'll make this one or not. I currently don't have AutoX tires for the WRX (was a tire/wheel pimp for those Brembos, and don't have AutoX rubber yet on wheels that DO fit) and the SS rear axle is making bad noises

BTW, what wheels are those tires for the STI mounted on (if these are your tires being abused)? As I found out, the selections of wheels that DO fit over the STI Brembos is pretty limited to say the least! Only Rota wheels that'll fit (in 17") are the Tarmacs and SDRs....nothing else.

Bummer Ed, that sucks about both cars...

To answer your question, I am running AS... The STI is bone stock.

What kind of tires do you have on the WRX now? the STI's RE011 (or what ever they are)

Right now I have my old Kumho 712s on Steel Grey Rota SDRs. Look great and fine for the street, not too AutoX worthy . Pics are linked below
  1. Left Side Picture
  2. Left Side Brake
  3. Left Side Brake different angle
  4. Left Side Brake again
  5. Spoke Clearance (about 2mm!)
  6. Spoke Clearance, different angle
  7. Right Side Picture
  8. Right Side Brake Close up
I should have my AutoX rubber soon (buying some "lightly used" Falkens on Gold SDRs)...possibly even this Saturday. However I'll have to roll the rear fenders to get that to fit.
