I chose Avon over GY for 2 reasons:

1. Insurance claim - I don't want to be denied because of running non-DOT tires. I'm not so much concerned about collision coverage as I am about liability coverage.

2. Having driven GY bias-ply slicks on the track (and around the paddock), I wanted the smoothness of a radial for the street.

BTW, I find the Avons to be almost as sticky as the GY slicks, so I'm am very, very pleased.

YMMV,
Randy...
