I've been super pleased with the tires so far.
They hold power in first well, and of course from there on up. I will need to add some boost in the gears b/c it hooks so well.
One thing I don't like, is now that when I brake from a higher rate of speed I feel the back of the car shimmy. It's rather unsettling to be honest. I think it's b/c of the softer sidewalls.
I put some air in the tire, and it helped, but it's still there.

Sounds like your getting too much front dive. More air in the front tires may help. Stiffer spring rates. More front damping if you can add it.

I picked up the Nitto NT-01's. Rear's only, my fronts are still Azenis RT615's. 255R 225F
I didn't have this issue at all when I was on the older Azenis, switched rites and it's easily apparent.
I did put more air in the fronts.
