Don`t know . He just said during our conversation that he supplies the Avons and the Goodyear Blue Streaks to a lot of the West Coast guys . And here I`m dating myself as I used to run the Blue Streaks way back in the day .
Yes , one is a radial and one is a bias ply . I think he told me that the Goodyears were slightly faster when warmed up on the track and gave more warning before breaking away , but you can drive the Avons on the street also and be as fast or almost as fast . However , as you know , how fast the car goes on one set of tires over another is determined a lot by the suspension setup and the driver .


P.S. I run 15" wheels .
