I only got 10k out of my Azenis, and they were beyond the wear bars -- but not corded!

I usually get 12k out of them beyond the wear bars including a years worth of autox's. Who knows without the autox's I might get 12.5k out of them!

Dave - forgot to tell you...

The 2004 and 2005 STi do not have a "special tool" required for the fuel lines. That was a change for 2006. My car's fuel lines can be undone with a screwdriver.

I have read a lot of reviews on the D1 Star Specs, and people seemed to have really liked them. I am sure they would be better in the rain, and judging by the tread design they would definitely be quieter. They are pretty reasonably priced as well about $15 more a tire from DTD. Still might spring for some wheels though so we shall see. Not stock though

People always seem to like what they bought.

Hopefully some of the reviews were from people who have owned other summer tires on the same car, and can provide impartial feedback?

With a tire so new, I would wonder how it performs in sanctioned events...

Karl - this one's for you: the dumbest thing someone said about your sti/wrx

It happened the day your car went kaput, and I completely forgot about until this morning.

Anybody go out to the meet last night. I was going to go washed my car and everything, but my girl made me a special dinner and I felt bad leaving her alone.

No - but evidently we missed an asshat in a GTO spin out and demolish a bus bench, then high-tail it before the police were called...
