I have autocrossed on the 512's... and you'll drop atleast a second and a half off your times by going to the Azenis.... The 512's are good tires for Allseason performance tires, but they arnt race tires.

Autocross: Because Life is more fun on three wheels......
"I know Solo only comes one minute at a time, but what an intense, non-stop, fast-forward car control exercise minute it is. Sure, the velocity is higher in road racing, but inside the car it is slow-motion in comparison. In Solo, the turns come like machine-gun rounds. "

Yeah ill try Azenis sport. i know theyre great, but I also hear that once their traction limit is reached, and surpassed, that they lose grip and its like being on ice.. does that sound familiar?

Nope, they let go smoothly and controlablly. if some one said they feel like ice when they let go... they probably found a patch of dirt on the road.

Are the 615's any better at resisting hydroplaning? I only run one set of wheels and my mx's can get a little scary in the rain at highway speeds. Thinking of switching to the s03 for this reason.
Chiming in a bit late, but I normally don't come in here. I've been running 195/60/14 RT615's on stock steelies on the street for a few weeks now. I love them. They grip like crazy. Especially on the launch. I launch at 4k and they just stick. They didn't perform that well at the 1/4 track like I was hoping but looking back on it I think it was because I had to drive through the water pit. Wet Azenis= no good.
In the turns they are better than my nittos which were a 40 profile. I did break them lose around one turn, but it was my falt because I tapped the brakes like a dumbass and got to drift my car for the first time. I haven't really drove in the rain yet, when I do I will kick it into granny mode for sure. FYI they weigh 18lbs.
So I am gonna stick to the azenis for the street and swap the BFG drag radials for the track. I would def recommend these tires to anyone looking for some serious grip whether racing or just spirited driving.
