You in an arguing mood Evil? I don't have any Falkien Azenis. Have I ran them before on a lot of cars? Yes. have I ran them on my vette and loved them in like 2010....YUP. But your question was Do I currently have any? The answer to your question, good sir, is indeed NO. 
Believe me when I tell you I have nothing to lie to my invisible internet friends about!

Arguing mood....???? you lied.. plain and simple
I took that from your posted thread.... you tried to make a joke out of me and my assertion...... but I knew better and with a little research found that you indeed have vested ownerships in these tires..
Your joke backfired.. and you know it.. and don't for a moment think anyone would believe that I some how made that cut and paste up.. . so with that. you made my list of people not to view.
Enjoy trying to BS others, but that will never happen to me... again by you.. You've already made your bed.

Lol well I guess if answering a question truthfully is a lie to you then so Be it. Id be doing pretty good to have a tire I had in 2010 still on the car with a 200 tread wear....might want to look at the date of where ever you pulled that from. Ps nothing i said was a Joke. I was giggling because you assumed just because I said people should check out Azenis that I was running them. Im not. Got goodyears on the car right now.
Im confused by your rudeness and why exactly you think I would need to lie about something so dumb...
Anyway, for anyone looking the Azenis are a Great tire.

With half tread left on original Goodyear runcraps, I couldn't stand them any more. I wanted to retain run-flat capabilities, but wanted quiet tread and better ride. After careful study on capabilities and cost, I chose Michelin PS2s. Best price by far was COSTCO, and their installation was satisfactory. I also had them install new TPMS sensors because of age. These tires transformed the car. It no longer tries to change lanes, I can speak to my wife at a normal volume level, and the ride/grip are fantastic.
For my needs, I'm 100% satisfied.

Loud is the BFG Gforce T/A KDW's! Loudest tires ive ever had on the Vette! They grip though and wear like rocks so its too bad. I like my Vette quiet also which is why I love the titanium exhaust. The most quiet tire I think I ever ran was the Nitto Invo.

Interesting read on the comments here. I recently asked for some inputs on tires too but had narrowed the selection to a couple of choices that fit closest to my requirements. From the few who responded I did make a purchase based on some of the comments. Point was I read, researched and asked around until I was satisfied for what I purchased what I wanted to try out. Its difficult to just ask what is best, that's too wide open. The bucket of questions is huge, do you weekend race and drive on the same tire? Maybe the OP wants a less noisy, good tread wear and have a good pattern for driving in Rain. Many questions yes and for anyone just to say these are best and should be your next tires, that seems too wide open.

I was concerned about that with the KDW's but they are VERY COOL looking!

Running Michelin Pilot Super Sport run flats as replacement for Goodyears. Superlative ride, handling and minimal road noise which, with a convertible, can be annoying at times.
All things said, I agree with those responding to your question, rather for Hankooks, Michelins or others, the Goodyears aren't worth the price. I would never consider buying them for anything. I run Michelins on our Denali SUV and wife's 2002 Thunderbird as well.
All the best in your decision if still pending!
