Which M/T are you speaking of ?
The reason I wrote that was that I have a distinct memory of one of the Kirkham brothers talking about Avons versus other tires, of which the MTs were one. There was absolutely no question that the Avons outperformed the other tires. But, the other tires tended to give you more notice that you were reaching the limit while the Avons reached their limit with less notice. So, if you are a Sunday afternoon Richard Petty, you're more likely to put your car in to the trees with the Avons as opposed to other tires.
