Pros:

Great grip in the dry, very progressive.
|
|
Cons:
|
Decent but not fantastic in the wet
|
|
Great tires for California weather, the grip in the dry is awesome! They are very controllable at the limit. The wet weather performance is decent, but not overly impressive, but c\'mon, it\'s meant to be a dry tire. This will not be the last set of Azenis that I buy

i love this tire, it handles awsome, it looks awsome. its the best summer tire ive seen in a while. its ok for rain if you dont push it if you drive the car like its stock in the rain then the tires will be ok.

Pros:
|
Great Grip / Stiff Side Wall / Cost Effective
|
|
Cons:
|
Noisey
|
|
Awesome tire for the money. Great grip w/ decent tread wear (200). A little noisey, but so is my exhaust. Can be used for autocross, but there\'s no comparing these to V700\'s. Definitely worth the price.

dry grip, price

Cons:

wet grip, loud

they grip really well on dry pavement. wet, don\'t even think about it. great price for the performance that you get out of them. a very loud tire though. especially highway speeds, they have a constant whine to them.

Pros:
|
perfect for STX in Scca Auto-x, great dry grip
|
|
Cons:
|
Quite noisy, loses grip when it gets hot.
|
|
OK most of you know this is a sticky tire. It works very well in the dry. It wet weather performance is nowhere near as bad as some would have you believe. Infact it is quite good on wet pavement the tires stay nice and cool (wich they like), it \'s downfall is standing water. When they are brand new this is not so bad, just slow down a little. When worn however you need to avoid puddles like the plauge! and be very carefull.

great dry performance, price
|
|
Cons:

wear fast, horrible in the cold, heavy
|

I was running them on my 2.5RS as my street summer tires. They offer great dry grip and handling. I found that they were fine even in heavy rains and standing water. When temperatures (outside not tire) get cold they are like driving on lego blocks, you gotta take it easy and account for it. Don\'t even think about driving in the snow. I\'d buy them again if they weren\'t so heavy, I had a noticable decrease in acceleration with just a tire change.

Crazy dry/hot weather grip.
|
|
Cons:
|
Absolutely no grip in cold/wet weather.
|

This was my first set of upgraded tire and I couldn\'t really be happier.
They do pick up every rock they touch though.
