I had no problems with them for over 18 months I had them. Sold them last week with 2mm of tread left and they would hydroplane at 70mph. But realize any tire will hydroplane if you drive too fast.

I had 30 autocrosses, 2 track days, 15K daily driving miles on those Azenis. But people have be complaining of crazy tire wearing issues because they are running crazy alignment settings. I had 0 toe front and rear, 1.5 negative front camber and 2.2 negative rear camber and I was dropped 2".

People who wore through them quick had like 1/4" toe out front and rear and I believe toe wears out your tires quicker than camber. I even talked to the Falken tire rep and he said yeah other people who run conservative toe get more wear out of the tires.
