Anyone ever see a comparison between Goodyear and Avon compounds? Like a Goodyear 165 is comparable to an Avon A50 compound. I tried all kinds of Internet searches, but this jewel is simply missing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) |

Let me remember. I think his quote was I'd rather run hard compound Good Year than a piece of crap avon!
Soft Avon would be worthless at Hoopa on a hot day. Like I have said Avon is one trick pony for us using 15 and 16 inch wheels. No use for them once temps are above 70 degrees. And yes soft compounds would go off in long ax run. This post has been edited by grantsfo: Jul 14 2012, 11:03 PM |
