Can you run Falken Azenis tires on 2 liter Fuch alloys? Will they clear the wheel well without flaring? The wheels I picked up last weekend turned out to not be 15X6. They are the same size and offset as the 2 liter Fuch alloys I already have on the car. So what are you running with these tires? Not Aaron as he is running 5 lug.

Scott;

I know several people that run the Azenis on Fuchs and other Porsche wheels (as I do) and I don't know of any clearance issues. Though I would have to disagree with Grant. On the street I run them at 32 and when Autocrossing I start those tires at 25 lbs cold and tweak the pressure from there depending on the track conditions and layout.

When I was instructing at our regions' most recent driving school 2 weeks ago I ran the tires at 32 lbs. I was feeling lazy and had left them at the pressure I run them on the street. I found them to be squirrely and I was skating around like Dorothy Hammel on speed (anyone says that 914s can't spin a 360 aren't trying hard enough!)

I know people differ greatly on tire pressure so that's just me.
