Falken Azenis tires - 245/35/20 275/35/20

Overall reaction is good, gets looks while driving. Friends co-workers all loved them. Only a couple of negative reviews from people who mentioned the bars being too open and showing the brakes (and I agree), but I plan on getting monster brakes later to quiet that gripe. :D

I personally think they look good, they do hit performance a bit and with the lowering springs it does ride rough, but it's not horrible.

I plan on switching to 20" iForged at a later date. I bought these cause I overspent on my system and do like the 5" rear lip.

With price considered (sub $2k with tires) they're like a sore dick, can't beat it!!

looks awesome.... i like em. the only negative is that the giant lip makes the spokes look small. nonetheless.. its a great look for a great price

kinjal 12-26-2004 09:08 PM

also.. it matches perfectly with silverstone

xxlbeerZ, what are the offsets and are you using spacers?

tig488 02-21-2005 03:23 PM

They are 20"wheels I would think so. Lol a @ the sore dick comment havent heard that one in a while. The wheels look good, I like them, sounds like a very reasonably priced option. The offset if perfect IMO for those sizes, what are they?

tig488 02-21-2005 06:51 PM

uh, just because they are 20s doesnt mean they clear brembos, its an offset issue not rim size.

but thanks for trying.

xxlbeerZ 02-21-2005 09:20 PM

I don't remember the offset in the front, the rear is +20 I think.

I believe they'll clear any brakes within reason, the spokes go out and curve in at the very end, plus they're 20 inches tall.

If I remember I'll take a pic, I can probably stick my arm between the brakes and spokes.

Nice.... how are those springs?
