I am thinking about these tires as they are the only one that are reasonable priced and available in 235/50/17 to replace the stock 125/55/17
They are high performance A/S and not bad for $128 a pop for W rated tires.

Not familiar with this company so want some feedback if you have used them on G sedan.
Please post how many miles on it too.
Thanks

Re: Tire question about Avon Tech M550
I put these on my BMW 330i and was pretty impressed with them! They are really quiet and have decent grip, my only complaint would be that it seems their side walls are taller than other brands of the same size? I only have about 10K on them, but wear seems good and they are still quiet! Stay away from the Yoko AVS ES100's if you want a quiet tire!

Roadracer,
So how do they compare to Turanza that come OEM on G35?
Having driven 10k miles do you think they will last upto 30k?
What do you mean by side wall are taller? Are they larger diameter than they should be for that size?
Thanks

My original Michelin's are close to the wear nubs.
