There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Does anyone know who.......

Had one, got 12K out of it, and was impressed with the durability. The only thing that was not as good, in my opinion, was the wet traction. I had a toyo that had great wet traction but I got about 8K out of it. Would probably choose the toyo again if I could find it.

Best tires I've had were Toyo Proxes T1R. Absolutely fantastic grip even in the rain, cold roads, etc. Even though it's not supposed to be a winter tire it performed really well. Only issue was like you mention they wear relatively quickly but to me thats fine because of the performance.
I couldn't get one this time so had to settle for a Toyo Proxes 4 instead. That wasn't so good for the first 100km but settled in well now. Did very well on my last ride of 1100km of cold, sometimes icey, roads (winter here
) . Haven't tried it in the rain yet but it's supposedly got a better rating than the T1R in the wet.

Because its a low end tire with poor traction and worse wet road traction. Many folks actually want top tier tires. Not bargain brands.
Yokohama S-Drive 205/55 15. The real world diameter is exactly the same as the stock Kenda. Width is within 3/16 but it has better traction and high speed stability. This is the tire we recommend and install in our shop.

Toyo Proxes4
I live in the NW WA and get lots of rain. The Toyo Proxes4 has proven to be a good tire on both wet and dry pavement. When it's time to re-tire I'll buy another one.
