I don't have a my sprint yet, but I do run Avons on my VFR. I commute 
a lot as well and have enjoyed almost 7k on the Azaros on the VFR. 
There is still about 30% in the center and 65% on the shoulders with 
a well scuffed but not recently scrubbed chicken strip. I have ridden 
in the rain and snow with these tires and have been very happy with
them.
Sometime this week I'll be installing the new Storms on the VFR as 
both front and rear have been stricken with screws.
