[QUOTE="HaulinAshe, post: 236492, member: 1875"] It's an almost-established fact that Avon is experiencing a higher-than-typical return rate on the Storms. For anyone who buys their tires via mailorder as I do (I love SWMotoTires), here's some email conversation for you to consider. My message to SWMotoTires concerning return of the defective Avon front tire: SWMotoTires response: Now all this crap leaves me with about one reasonable choice, take the tire to an area Avon dealer WHO DID NOT SELL ME THIS TIRE and beg for assistance. I am not happy about this and truly hate to do business this way. I contacted Avon directly (as first suggested by SWMotoTires) and the Avon rep was 0% help. I'm not going to bother bashing Avon. I'm really just trying to raise awareness of what you might be getting yourself into when dealing with defective rubber from ANY tire brand. IMO it certainly raises the value of brands with extremely low return rates. [/QUOTE]
