I usually change tires in sets, but I had to change the rear tire before it wore out due to a flat (ran over a nail). My front tire (a Metzler Z6) has about 9K miles on it and I am planning on taking two trips mid April that would total around 3,500 miles. The tread on the tire looks fine at 9K miles. Should I change the front tire now at 9K miles or take a chance that the tire will make 13K miles?
Also, the current rear tire is a RoadPilot 2. Would it be OK to mount a Avon Storm front tire on the bike? I have a spare Avon Storm front tire in my garage.
