Tires again (Yawn)

As we've crept into another "Happy New Year", I'll apologize for not consulting the myriad of stored info in here regarding rubber. It seems every year there's a new "favorite" SVX tire. I'm now running Yoko AVS DBs with about 37K & 6 years on them; & have been contemplating a change this spring. I could, no doubt, squeeze another few thou' miles from these things. I've had no real complaints with the Yokos, even when showing off in deepish snow, but they're getting noisy as all well worn V rated products seem to do. The Beast has become more of a garage queen, so I can generally ignore any snow prowess required, as well as any ultra-super performance requirements, since I'm old, lazy, & use the Nissan for auto-cross jollies. Nonetheless, I'll probably go with an all-season performance product that will remain quiet for at least 20K. My latest Costco coupon book offers a $60.00 off deal on a set of BF Goodrich G-Force Sports. I don't yet know the price, which I'll check out later. If anyone is driving on these tires, let me know your opinion, OR your thoughts on any other "bargain" tires you're happy with. Thanks folks.

Ron (retired & need to be re-tired).
