Caveats: I don't track my cars, and I do not have experience with Avons (I've heard they are great tires, though)
Just a thought.

The Mickey Thompson "ST" tires are the same casing as the Coopers (Cooper owns MT and Avon) with a different tread pattern. We have delivered many SPF on the MTs and they get good reviews. The Avons are top in grip but are pricey. The MT ST tires are better in the wet than the CR6ZZ Avons.
