Re: [ST] Another Tire Thread?

[Bryan Zent <bzzgoesda919@xxxxxxxxx>]

I used to run Avon Azaros but never liked their wet
weather performance.  Last month I put on the new Avon
Storms.  After 3K miles, there is still plenty of
center tread (I'm hoping to get another 2.5K out of
them on an upcoming 6-day trip).  The tires have
worked great so far, including multiple runs through
Deals Gap, Cherohala Skyway, and other NC, TN, GA, and
VA twisties.

I even got stuck in the rain with them a couple times
and never once slid the rear like I always did with
the Azaros.

Your results may vary.

I just returned from a Hawk rally in Virginia, back to
New Hampshire, 
and my rear tire is all done.  Once again, since I
live so far from what 
I consider to be good roads (Northwest Virginia on
south) and I commute 
quite a lot on the Sprint, I'm left with tire after
tire hitting the 
wear bars in the center with plenty of side tread
left.  Can anyone speak 
to a tire that has a "rock hard", high mileage center
tread that can 
still play in the mountains, when I can get there?  

At least I was able to completely erase my rear
chicken strips before 
the tire died!  :0)!!

TIA,

J
