Scored!! Found a set of Polished ARE Libre 14X6

[mwegener111]

I have been looking for these for awhile, finally scored these ARE 14X6 polished Libre. Can't want to get them on. Need new tires still.

Please let us know what you find for tire options in 14".
I'm running some cheap tires I found on Ebay. I think they're called Republics. They had a decent size selection but the sidewalls are super soft; ok for the potholed streets around here but a bit sloppy in tight corners.

Assuming you can still get them, I run Falken Azenis on my 14" EMPIs. They are sticky to the point that they exposed my very tired idler box; a rebuilt of which is ordered.

They are slim picking as you know. I'll probably go with the Azenis RT615K. I wanted 195/65r14 but can't find any I like, so I'll end up with 195/60r14.

Falken has a newer version of the 615K, the 660. Supposedly a little better. Grassroots Motorsport compared the two and the 660’s did a little better. I like the tread design better anyway. I have 615’s on my Empi’s as well and am very pleased with them. If I stay with 14’s I’ll probably get the 660’s next.

I believe that the Azenis that I used to have were 195 60 14's. Those were on the 5.5" rims that I had. I still have those on the front, but the rears are now 7" so I need at least 205's. I think the tires I am running now are 195 60 14 in the front and 205 55 14 in the rear. These have about the same diameter, which is why I bought the cheapo Republics. I wasn't able to find Azenis with 205 55 14. They were very sticky tires, but once they've heated up a couple times, they're cooked and they glaze over. Good for drifting I guess.

Nice! I like the raw cast look but polished are great too.
