I was just talking to a Cobra buddy about this.
I haven't painted my Avons yet (with "Avon", hehe) but when I do, I fully expect them to yellow like Al Capone's teeth. Avons feels very oily to me.
You should see how they stained my epoxy floor!!! Not surprised the paint peeled. I don't mind the yellowing but the peeling would bug me.

It is funny you said this. When I was over in Germany and wanted Avons CRZZ's , I had to reach back to the states to get them. They were not alllowed to be sold in Germany because they were considered a "dirty oil tire" by the German Avon distributor and I guess therefore unclean for use on Germany roads. If any body has anything to add to the chemistry of tires in this regard, but not to hijack this thread.
