Had Avon ZZ* maybe 3 maybe something else on A6 when bought it, looking at the tread pictures on the net they looked the same as ZZ3. Not impressed at all, noisy, hard, low grip in dry and wet and wear out fast. I put on second hand Michelin Alpin for winter ,they were more comfortable, quieter and with better grip in cold , whet and even on dry and hot. I did not take them off for summer, I thought I will wear them out during summer and get another set for winter as I expected them to wear out fast in summer heat. Much to my surprise they didn't wear out much at all. Looks like they will last this winter and next summer before need to change.
