Avon Storm ST's

Has anyone tried the new Avon's Storm ST's yet?
Thinking about giving them a try on a major to roadtrip this summer.
Azaro users, I think this is the replacement for that line... Would like your feedback too.

I have them, but not enough miles to report on anything really.

Bridgestone has also just come out with a replacement for the BT020's, called the BT021 I beleive.

GO GO GO! j/k

My trip is in June, so the tires won't go on til then.
Not as interested in mileage as I am wet and overall ride quality.

I'm going to be hard pressed to find a tire that could make the whole trip with bikes this heavy.

Definitely looking forwarded to your take on them.

I've got about 1000 miles on a set, Commuting, twisties, and wet. All I can say is utterly confidence inspiring..... huge improvement over ME Z4's. This article says it all! http://onewheeldrive.net/index.php?o...675&Itemid=130

I have these tires and post my opinion on the tires. I also got a nail in the tire before it was a month old and Avon honored the Road Hazzard warranty on the tire and replaced the tire. The Storm ST tires are great all purpose street/touring tires. I like them for street & touring much better than Bridgestone, Dunlops or Michelins (no warranty). The Storm ST tires warm up quickly and are even steady on groved pavement. The tires grip good and you will feel confindent rinding on them. The tires are also great in the rain.
