I priced a new set on Yokohamas from Sears, lower than any other source available.
After a hard track run I checked tire pressures and scanned each tire across its width with a pyrometer for temp variations and temps were constant across the treads on all four tires and tire pressure was stable. Not bad for an inexpensive, good mileage tire.

I don't think they make the Avids in the 15" size anymore. Too bad, because it was the best bang for the buck.
