Avon Cobra ??

sorry for asking so many questions but I am trying to get up to speed on tires and I really, really need some new one!!

For those of you who use Avon Cobra tires - is this (see below) the size you use?

Are these prices reasonable?

Have any of you bought from Rocky Mt ATV/MC? Any problems?

Front Tire ($142.00)

Rear Tire ($182.00)

Yes, those are good prices. You can't go wrong with Rocky Mountain ATV/Jake Wilson when it comes to tires.

I just bought my new front tire from Dennis Kirk for $100.00 plus $5.00 shipping, but I chose a Dunlop Whitewall.

That is a very good price, and the tires are very good, too. I'm on my second rear Avon tire.

That's where I got mine. Looked like a good price and included free shipping at the time. Excellent service, absolutely no complaints.
