Re: [ST] Mileage



Sprint, ;)

I've been logging 10K mi. on the AV-45s, and 5.5-6K mi. on the -46s
on my RS -- but practically no highway miles.

The -45s still cup like the various Bridgestones I've tried (although
not as severely nor nearly as early).

I've slid the front Avon twice in hard switchbacks, which prompted me
to discuss the Azaro line with an Avon tech.  The recommendation was
to use the softer -49 (compatible with a -46 rear) on the front for
much better grip, and the slightly different tread pattern is
supposedly less prone to cupping.
