not always the case, i've seen many a catalytic converter/exhaust flange/control arm/etc high center at the edge of the rack.

the alignment rack that i go to has a flat entry way into a pit. your car can be dragging its chassis and it will make it on there.

but from what pics you've posted, your car isnt even that low.

I looked at those as well...about 15 bucks more a tire than Azenis. Where did you see they perform better than all those tires?

I might have to try them. I do like trying new tires. o: The tread pattern makes them look like they'd do better in the rain than the Azenis.

Definitely look into the T1-R's if they are available in your size. I've tried quite a few tires on the M, and thus far for overall daily use with performance: T1-R is champ. Currently am on the RE01-R's, they are insane in terms of grip (even in cold weather contrary to what is said). However, they are expensive as heck and wear out like an eraser.
