Holy war! Victoracers VS. Azenis

I run a 15" x 6 wheel for track / autox, and I currently have the 205/50 Azenis. Love 'em. (Especially the cost...)

Has anyone ran both and made a comparison?

Thoughts?

Thanks!

The Victoracers will be worth about 1 second, I think... the only thing I still don't like about R-compounds is that their breakaway isn't progressive in the least - they either have traction or they don't. I still love my Azenis and recommend them for most driver's until they have a season under their belt.

FWIW, most people I autocross with still prefer the Hoosiers over the Victoracers, even though the Victo's last longer. The Hoo's still win on stickiness, as the Victo's tend to be a bit more squirrely.

Hi! I've had both. My opinion is that the Azenis are not even sticky compared to the VictoRacers. Can't (won't) turn back now. Either way ~ have fun:smile:
