Hey, all you riders with 17" rims. My lenghty search for all weather and all terrain tires (75% paved), has led me to avon distanzias. Does anyone have experience with these, or have a good recommendation for a different tire? Thanks,
Kevin

I am on my third Avon Distanza rear. Never tried them on the front, I used an Avon Por-extreme Rain on the front. A really good combination, both on tarmac and drier green laning.
I get 3-3500 miles out of the rear and about 7-7500 out of the rain tyre on teh front.

Mine has the Metzler Tourance. Too soon to tell on this bike, but I had some on a BMW GS and thought they were first rate on wet, dry, and in terms of wear.
Motorcycling used to be my second favorite thing, but now that I've become an old man, it's moved up a notch.

5000-6000km on my distanzias and I will get the same next time. I dont ride too aggressive on pavement so I cant comment on high-perf characterisics but they are better than the orig. corsas off-road.
