Re: Pirelli SV 6000 stuff (Now AVS vs World)

Well,
	WHICH AVS.  The AVS Sport wasn't even out yet so It couldnt' have
been tyhe AVS Sport.  The AVS designation is just a line.  Its their High
PErformance line.  YOu probably had AVS Intermediates.  NOt great in the
rain but GREAT in the Dry.,  Old design, great tire.  NOT meant for the
snow.  
	The AVS Sports are BRAND NEW and have a VERy nice tread design.
Solid center Rib that is massive but offset to channel water.  Seems like
a HOT design to me.  I cant wait for some testing.   Predictions (BFG TA
kd will still reigh for Dry Grip with the AVS Sport possibly nudging out
the SO-2pp for Wet grip or Best all Around tire.)  Just my predictions
based on my own experiences and research.
