Tire Shelf Life

[abatzis2@hotmail.com (Michael Abatzis)]

i think you'd be ok, but yokohama has a new tire (avs es100) for about the 
same price--it's supposed to be comparable to the intermediate but with 
better wet traction and better tread life (both of which suck on the 
intermediate). i've talked to a couple of people at tire rack, and they said 
they've had good reviews with them.
