Re: Tried some new tires

I'm always looking for a way to get more mileage from tires without compromising traction. *I've been running the Bridgestone BT010/020 combo without any problems but wanted to try something new. *I picked up a set of the new Avon ST 45/46 and had them mounted last week in preparation for a big TSBA get together this past weekend.

I did just under 500 miles on Saturday with everything from tight technical twisties to 100 plus mph sweepers and was very impressed. *The rear 46 seems less 'pointy' than the 020 and stuck like glue without stepping out, slipping or spinning. *It's too early to tell how much mileage I'll get from them but I'll keep you posted. *

I think I paid $136 for the rear and $99 for the front including shipping from SW Moto Tire and had them in 2 days.

So far so good. *

Free shipping if you buy two tires. Nice! Good prices too, thanks for the info.
