I planned to run Falken's Azeni RT-215 tire but after looking all day today I think they are pretty much and history.
Falken has replaced them with the Azeni RT-615 I was thinking about these but I wonder if anyone is running them. I imagine they would be at least comparable for performance but the price is a bit more. How are these or the Rt-215's for a driver? |

615 is a great tire. You wont go wrong with it. 615 is actually a better tire for street without giving up performance of the 215. |

I measured the 205/15/15 215 and 615 side by side and the 615 is actually wider. |

Dont know what wheel you are running, I am running 625's on 4 lug Fuch's and they fit perfect. Aaron said it correct, they stick like nothing I have ever driven on. I had the 215's and the 615's side by side brand new and unmounted and I am telling you, the 615 is not as wide at the 215. There were 3 of us there when I did it too so it wasnt just my opinion. In my opinion, it is the best tire you can run on these little cars. I have not go to drive in the rain with them but when I do, I will post the results. It's supposed to rain here tomorrow and Thursday so the wait wont be long.

215's are marginal to good in the rain. depends on water depth. tghey hydroplane on DEEP puddles (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
