STILL?  It's looking like I'm sticking (pun intended) with Falkens next
time around, then.

Are the Bridgerocks or Dunlop stickier than the Azenis?  It's so hard to
find good comparison data on tires like this.

The REO1R and the Dunlops are a bit more pricey ($115 and $90) than
Azenis ($79).  The Hankooks are ever-so-slightly cheaper ($73), but I
really hated the previous best Hankook (before the R-S2 came out), so
I'm disinclined on the brand, especially since the tread design looks
just like the one I had.  (They weren't very sticky at all, but wore out
just like a much stickier tire.)

(prices quoted for 15")
