Falken Azenis or Toyo T1S

[Blitz]

Which of these tires would be better for drag racing? I currently have racing retreads, but I'm looking for something that will handle better on the street. Anyone drag race with either tire? What type of '60 were you pulling with them?

Thanks

I have T1-S's and they grip very well. At the track I pull 1.7's.

However azenis are insanely cheap, and all 4 can be had for less than the price of 2 toyo's.

I have the falkens. And love them I pull 1.7 60's all day long. They handle very well.

personally, i'd go toyo. i have heard that falkens are a good gripy tire and i haven't heard anything bad about them either, and as cheap as the falkens are you really can't go wrong. if they dont end up giving you the performance numbers your looking for they will still make a good back up daily driver tire.

how are the falkens for cornering or wet traction in comparison to the toyo's ?

The Arzenis are as close as you can come to a full on Autocross race tire as you can get without being classified as such. Stiff sidewalls and soft rubber. The Toyo's I think would be better for drag racing.

What about the weight differences? I am looking for a lighterweight tire. I know the Toyo's are pretty light compared to most any tires.

azenis are heavy.
