What size tires are you looking for? That can often makes a subtle difference in actual tread pattern (and behavior) difference in a tire. What are you looking for in a tire? In my mind, the Intermediates are a lot more sporty than any of the others listen here, and will probably have a noticably shorter lifespan. The Avids, IMHO, are just not really a good tire to start with, and I'd probably put them last on my list. The A2 and the 950s are similar tires in goal, but if I'm not mistaken the 950s are a LOT more expensive. Between them, I'd probably lean towards the 950s (running them on my Volvo) but if cost is an issue the A2s are just a good, all-around tire and I *think* a little less spongy than the 950s. The 950s, however, probably get the nod in terms of wet handling....
Choose your poison! :)
