Thanks AKADriver. ST115s are good, I have them as well, nice ride. Aaron, are the Advan Neovas available in the US? or are you getting a hook up?

The st115's are nice for a street tire.. the azenis sports have much better traction though. I would think drifters like them b/c they are much more durable than the azenis sports...

DAMN the Japanese for having such smooth roads!!! arr.. we got the softer sidewalls b/c of our ****ty roads.

nah they are very good for drift because the breakaway is very steady and predictable. not snappy and fast

i know koguchi uses them on all his s13s and various cars. he uses them in D1 competition as well.

tire wear and drifters..its just part of the fun. tires dont last more then 1 month if your lucky.

sigh..i wish i could drift everyday relatively worry free--like some places in japan can...sigh...
