Ok I have stock 7th gen gts rims and I was wondering what tires other ppl had and how well they work. I have found a deal on some Nitto Neo Gen 205/50/16.

celicazr, do your tires make LOTS of noise loosing traction? i tried some azenis on an ae86 and didnt like the noise when it went sideways.... YUCKY but very sticky for normal driving it felt like i was taking a corner in a go kart the way it took that turn so tight.

Which Azenis did you use?
I dont think you would've use the rt215 or the rt615.
These are more for track days and twisties.
Man they are expensive just for 205/50/15 and tires wear is very quick(I've
been told your lucky to get 20,000Kms out of them).
These tires will be begging you to push your car harder around corners.
Once they are warmed up they will stick like crazy smile.gif
