023 with plenty of tread on it up for grabs if any ones intrested !

The new Avons are feeling good, ' next week will be the test in Germany

They do feel soft until they have warmed up but other than that all is good

front or rear?

how much is loads

you do realise a Avon tyre is a 10 year backward step compared to the 023 youve been using, be careful out the box :thumbsup)

Dave

don't really think there's many bad tyres now tbh, think its easy to blame tyres when one foooks up, its all in thee heed :P

in the sport touring range there dosn't seem much difference in the mileage between them all,

just down to personal choice and dosh IMO,

its a plus now Aldi are selling Avons hail ,

the new avons look very similar to the michelins pr3/4 's

I'll have the rear then Dave :thumbsup) ,

are you going away? let me know when you are back so we can sort summat

cheers steve
