Plus, I have a tricked out Lotus Elise so I pay a lot of attention to handling and David K said he thought that Avons excelled in handling, and they have no white letter branding. So Avons it will be.
I had a Kirkham gauge go bad and it was replaced w/o question at no cost.

And Avons will be my next tire. They're DOT-approved and V-rated, last I remember, and are considered by most to be the best available tire for our Cobras that run 15" wheels.
