Default Avon Tires

How do you people like Avon tires? I'm going in Friday to get a new set. This is about 4 months early. The Bridgestones I have on the bike didn't cut the mustard. The rear is down to the threads showings. The Bridgestones gave a nice ride, but didn't last. The Avon's are almost twice the price of the Bridgestones. I'm going with Avon Cobra Radials. The Front is a 130/70 HR18. The rear is a 200/70 HR17. I don't think the 10 MM wider on the rear will be clearance problem. It should ride well and last longer. I hope.
