      I have a set of the Azenis and I can tell you, you will not find a better autocross tire for the money. The other good tire to look at is the Kuhmo MX. They need some heeat to get sticky unlike the Azenis.
      Good luck out there.

        hello,

        i was wondering what is the limit of tire that can fit on a stock basket or bottlecap with only a 1/4" spacer?

        can a r compound be ran, and if so, what exact ones will work?

        I've used a first-gen Azenis, and was now looking for Hankook street tire, or possibly take-offs... but don't know clearance

          225/50-14 hoosiers fit on the 14" weaves with a 1/4" spacer. not sure what sort of spacer you'd need with the bottlecaps though, as they sit a bit further inside the fenders.

            whoa, quick reply

            any rolling/fender flaring needed?
            G. Tire must fit the allowable wheels and fender wells without
            modification.
