| These are great tires, have taken them to the Tail of the dragon twice in two years and they out preformed my expectations. Even now with almost no tread on them, they still grip in dry and wet conditions wonderfully. |

1991 TOYOTA MR2 TURBO |
| These are one of my favorite non R-comp tires made. They have great treadwear for a trackable tire and are predictable, yet forgiving. These are a big improvement over the previous RT-615 (non-K) tires in their ability to hold up to the heat of track day sessions. I've run these on several cars, and all but the heavy, high horsepower car (2JZ Supra single turbo) they have been just fantastic. On the Supra, the tires would tend to get a little gre... read more... |

| I've used the 615's since they came out. The "K" version is new, this is my first set. Far better in all respects. I drive a modified 3900 lb car, and they work great. Wet traction was a remarkable bonus. I'm a fan of this tire, but once hot from autocross runs, they can still get a bit "greasy" when pushed, and wear quickly. |

| Rt-615 has been my front tires on my track only drift car. They are exceptional. They are very grippy in wet or dry conditions and don't over heat. Also they perform well when cold which is important for a drift cars front tires as it is hard to get heat into them before a run. |

| We run these tires on a Datsun 280ZX in 24 Le Mons races. They last one 16 hr race, about 800 miles. Not sure I would want to go for 900+. We have placed 7th 4th 1st 2nd. They hold like glue. Would not run anything else. |

2005 DODGE SRT4 |
| I drive a heavily modded SRT4 with a little over 400bhp and these tires stick to a dry road very well (emphasis on dry). Don't expect great treadwear though, I might get 15,000 if I'm lucky out of this set. Overall not a bad tire, probably going to leave two of these on the rear wheels and put two cheaper tires with better treadwear on the front and just rotate on strip days. |

| I *probably* wouldn't buy these again for a commuter/daily driver car as they wear too fast...but they are too much fun while they last! Wet traction is actually pretty good but if there is standing water on the road they will not "cut through" it. On dry pavement the grip is phenomenal...during some more "spirited" driving I've heard exclamations from the passenger seat like "it's gonna flip over!!" but these tires just stick and the car goes we... read more... |

| Great tires for the price! Upgrading to a 245 instead of a 205 series tire next year for Auto-X. I was keeping up with guys running 140 rated tires and 245's with my 205's rated at 200. Great feel and response to track and Auto-X racing. |

| I have these tires on a 99 Miata and it sure is quick. Responsive, grippy. Given the old Azenis reputation about wet traction, I wasn't expecting much, but the new Ks really impressed me - no issues in wet cornering but stay away from deep puddles. |

2004 MITSUBISHI EVO 8 |
| I bought these tires after using up 2 sets of the original Azenis 615 on my Evo over the years. I can't say that these new K-series grip a whole lot better than the old, but there's some marginal performance in my opinion. I don't track the car, but do very spirited driving and these tires have provided loads of fun. The road feel and steering feedback are excellent and turn-in is very sharp. They are a great bang for the buck. Wet traction is no... read more... |

| Used these Falken Azenis for a 24hr Chump car race. We were very satisfied with good grip, predictable handling and had very even tire wear. I wish they could be available in wider sizes for 15" wheels, 205 is too narrow for our quite heavy FWD car. |

| This is the second time I've gotten a set of Azenis, and they are even better then the first set I got. Hydroplaning resistance is much better as well as wet traction compared to the old tread style. |

| I only use these tires when tracking the car, and they performed better than expected. I ran them on a '97 E36 M3 with some bolt on mods and a TC Kline suspension. I ran in dry and wet at ORP (Oregon), PR(Seattle) PIR (Portland). On dry, they do well but they aren't as sticky as compounds. Break away is gradual and manageable. In wet, they were almost better than dry. I ran my best time at ORP on a very wet track, go figure. PR beat them u... read more... |
