    Or check your tyre pressures once your tyres are warmed up. Always do them cold.

    The Azaro 45/46 combo is a much better than the Macadam 100X, and if anything you'll get better mileage, dry grip, and astonishing wet performance from the Azaros. The Azaros let go progressively and you can feel it happening, giving you plenty of options (more wheelspin or more grip - up to you buddy). The 100X's just let go *BAM* and then lie there on their sides laughing at your misfortune.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Ok, that is my experience with both, including the macadam on it's side laughing. Only thing is I don't plan on finding out the milage on the macadam, it is going long before it wears out.
