how much mileage do you think you can get on them?

I got mine for 41 bucks a piece and free shipping out of Florida.
Mounting was 20 bucks....5 for each.

These tires are great. I actually purchased 205/60-15 on my stock wheels and the grip is far much better than stock.

In the rain it feels like the road is dry.

Those were the same tires that were used when I raced in both years of the Mazda Rev It Up Competition. This past year I raced in the rain, and I was suprised as to how well they held up, even more so that it wasn't even my car that I was racing (Mazda 3) so I never even had the true feel for the car like I have of my own, but those tires gripped the corners no matter how fast I took them and I never lost control of the car.

I don't know man, I have camber issues that I need to take care of so I really couldn't tell you. As for racing, also, I don't know. But I highly doubt they are more sticky than azenis.

flyromeo-good deal, but mine was still better

SmutWanter-I hear you bro, I couldn't believe how well the tires gripped in the rain, and now that it's hot outside, it's even better!

ditto here, i've got brand new 225x40x18s and they are awesome, no road noise, handle great, and i should get some good milage out of them. I'm hearing that some folks get like 35k - 45k with the 512s.

also, i really like the lip protection, great design.

Funny thing is I ended up w/these tires simply by chance, it was all the shop had left in stock.

I am pretty soon going to bet some more before the winter time comes around but instead of the stock 195/60/15 I am going with the 205/55/15 and the 15's are V-rated;o)
