There are 2 models in the Azenis line. I'll assume you were running the RT615. I ran them once. They were OK. I'm guessing you don't drive or race much since they have lasted since 07. I got a year of daily driving out of mine.
What are you lookin for in a tire? If something similar look at the Nitto NT05. I ran them in the rear. They did ok too. Nothing short of a DR would have done well though. My favortie front tire was the Dunlop Z1 Star Spec. I had to run a 255 instead of 275 though.
