Interestingly,  one of the top-rated tires was the Avon Azaro, which I
haven't seen mentioned in tire discussions on this list.

    I have been running an Azaro since the ST Rallye. I have around 4,000
on it now and really like the tire. Great in the wet from what I've
found also. Wears longer. I'm not the "on the edge" type rider, but it
works great for me. I think my replacement is still documented on the ST
web site.
