Yokohama Parada Spec-2 Pic . $130 a pop, but stick like hell! Sweet design to them too.

I have the Parada's too, but I am getting the Khumo MX's next... I hear they are a lot better...

Wrong section, wrong section, wrong section! HAR HAR HAR!@#

Seriously though, this COULD be in the regular section since it's not entirely MSP specific. You'll get a wider range of answers.. It'll be up to you however to see if the tires come in the proper size n stuff.

I'm running the Nitto NeoGen's and I'm pretty pleased. I don't run into very extreme weather conditions here in Norcal, but for around $90 each, these are great tires with excellent grip!!

ummm RE040's, and they're actually really OK. On my second set but only 'cuz I got another set of MSP '03.5 wheels with new tires on 'em - and I'm not unhappy with them (but DEFINITELY have snows for winter, and can highly recommend the Semperit Sport Grip in a 205/55/16).

I've had RE71's (a great-grandfather to the S-03) and they were GREAT, had S-03's but only a few hundred miles before selling THAT car, those were fantastic but apparently wear fast. Heard great things about the new Goodyear F1 but never drove them. BFG CompT/A ZRs were great, wore like iron, and only got loud when they were about gone.

I love the Azenis. The Azenis are around $100 a piece from edgeracing.com. I know a guy buy me that gives to me at cost and installs them for free, so i could not pass up the deal.

Traction is incredible, I had my first road course event a few weeks ago and these tires stick like glue. And I have another one in a few weeks, so I'll see if they'll still hold up.

I know a guy by me that has the Yokohama Advans on his evo, I think I might buy those next time around just to try them out. He told me that he can barely get them to spin in the rain, so hopefully they can live up to that potential.

To my knowledge, Azenis' are not available in 215/45/17. Any info on this?

You are correct. They do not come in our stock size; I have 225/45/17. With my car completely slammed they do rub but usually only when im taking a u-turn. I rolled my wheel wells so that helped out some.

I just recentely re-lowered my car because it looks better that way. I will be rasing my car back up next w/e for the track event.

There are a few people on here running them with stock springs and they do rub on them also, but they rolled there wheels wells as well, "I think".

Thats a pure money shot I like it.

Where did you get your tires/wheels? While I am asking do you do your own mods or does someone do it for you? Thanks
