So it's time to change my rear and as promised I can give you the mileage to compare against the Bridgestone 023 rear I had on previously .................. the Avon Storm has done as near as dammit 3000 miles (2987), 200 miles more than the BT023. So from my totally unscientific study you can expect to get around 9% more mileage from an Avon 3D-XM than you would from a Bridgestone 023. I will be replacing the rear with Another Storm as there is no way I could go back to the Bridgestones, even if they didn't last that bit longer I much prefer the way the Avons make the bike handle. I'm a bit skeptical as to whether I will see the usual 2:1 ratio between replacing front and rear as the front doesn't look like it will do another 3000 miles but time will tell, and I will update this thread when the result is in
