So I have been running Falken Azenis for last 5 years...205/50 -15's and they have been very good for me.
My only issue is speedo and odometer is off ~10% (top speed too). This helps in autoX and it drops my gearing and tightens the ratio. (9.1% per tire calculator bu What do you all recommend for tires these days, between track events and autoX it is time, even if mileage is only ~ 10k. What is "best tire" these days? Hear Yokohama's are really good too, Love the grip of these Azenis, and rarely see rain, this is sunny day car. Second do I go with 195/65 -15 since I don't autoX and track that much any more? Or Second, can I re-gear 5th to put it back where it should have been on top-end and re-cal the speedo? Just expensive way to do it..... What other options do I have? Will 205/65-15 fit? What is best 195/65-15 option? Thanks Whiplash |
